Does it? Or does it just mean it isn't relevant to this scientific article? I think the latter.

I grew up very poor, got my degrees on academic scholarships, and have published scientific findings. I'd hate it if my work attracted media attention, only to have the bulk of it focus on my impoverished childhood. What about my work? Why doesn't that merit a focused discussion?

Whether the subject hates it is one factor among many. There's also: personal ethics, professional ethics, what the reader wants, political agendas, etc.
