This same thing happened back in the 10 advances in math and CS release a month or two ago. The non sofic group construction relied on false prior literature. They realized this and fixed it in the lean program but didn't modify it in the writeup, so the written proof was both incorrect as stated and did not correspond to the lean proof. I was surprised how little press it got at the time, it seems like a huge risk factor.
