Even if the software didn't support it, they could just make the song at 123 BPM and speed it up a tiny bit before releasing it.

It's really a stretch for the article to suggest their gear might not have supported fractional bpm. MIDI itself has always supported it and analog sequencers before that support it even easier. Not to mention external clock sync has been a thing for decades.
