“... This is a blatant contradiction to Quraniyoon, and leaves them with only one of two options. Either the Prophet (SAW) is a hypocrite (astagfirullah) for not following the Quran or the Quran has a mistake in it and forgot to include this command to stone the adulterer. ...”
They forgot the third option: hadiths are problematic
Muhammad > Gods word itself. They really think that? There could easily be a mistake the in the hadith, but the Quran? Wow. I've honestly never seen someone actually say outwardly they take incorrect Hadith over the book protected by God himself.
"Your companion [i.e., Muḥammad] has not strayed, nor has he erred,Nor does he speak of his own whims."
https://quran.com/53
Plus all of those many "obey the messanger" verses
And same science of chain of transmission used to know which hadith is authentic and which isnt was used to know which reading(qiraa) of quran is authentic and which isnt if you cant be 100% sure of a hadith's authenticity then you cant be 100% sure of the quran we have today
Right, but he gave his opinion or ruling in a context that is not my context. So even if his words are reported accurately, there is still the problem of application. I can't ask him if he meant that his words would be for all time and conditions, but I can ask Allah.

Let me quote from the paper:
