I used to think typos meant that the author (and/or editor) hadn’t checked what they wrote, so the article was likely poor quality and less trustworthy. Now I’m reassured that it’s a human behind it and not a glorified word-prediction algorithm.

      They’re not saying they treat the lack of typos as a bad sign, but rather that they treat typos as a good sign. Those are not the same thing.
