Latin and French were the languages of science for quite a while. Arabic before that and Greek before that.
This is ignoring Eastern science intentionally.
They searched for 'peer review.'
I don't see any indication that they searched in other languages, what those phrases might be, and how they accounted for that.
Well, that and it looks like they are conflating two ideas. They appear to be speaking about more modern journals and ignoring that philosophers shared and published their work, sought students, and held their findings up for scrutiny.
So, not just the phrase part that you mention, but also the language used may impact this. I have no idea how to say peer review in either French or Latin and I am a scientist.
