I think you may have picked up a logical issue with the paper - at least a badly expressed idea. It says 'An interesting finding is that quantum theory is the only non-classical probability theory that can exhibit entanglement without conflicting one or more axioms.'
It has not ruled out entanglement in classical probability theory - but for the life of me I can't think of how classical probability theory can have entanglement. It has me beat. In fact the following paper states it outright:

' In classical probability, entangled states do not exist'
Thanks for your careful reading - I should have spotted it - but didn't.
Someone else may be able to disentangle (pun intended) the intent - but I can't see it at the moment.
Thanks
Bill
