Yeah, that study doesn't say dietary cholesterol has little to do with cholesterol levels, it says that in ~25% of people, it
does matter, but their findings suggest it doesn't increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (and if I read right, it was pretty focused on eggs in particular).

Recent reports derived from clinical interventions established that increases in cholesterol intake result in increases in both LDL-C and HDL-C in those subjects who respond to dietary cholesterol challenges (∼25% of the population), whether they are children (14), young adults (15), or elderly individuals (16). Further, there are specific circumstances in which dietary cholesterol results in increases in only HDL-C, whereas no increases in LDL-C are observed, as is the case with weight loss interventions (11, 17),
