I read the article and you have fundamentally misunderstood what was written in it.
1: Painting 1mm strips of wood with h2o2 is not 'removing most of the wood' or dissolving it. Painting wood with h2o2 is an additive process.
2: Painting white stained wood with marine epoxy is not replacing dissolved structure, it's filling in natural depressions that you find in wood.
3: The wood, h2o2 and marine epoxy combine, you delightfully confident man.

they said it removes all the lignin, so it's not an "additive process", dingus
it depolymerises the lignin, breaking down the long plant polymers and releasing oxygen and a bunch of short chain ketones that would evaporate, which is why they stand them up and hopefully don't breathe the fumes.
(edit) just had a look at the lab data ((https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4360/11/5/776/pdf). The hydrogen peroxide actually removes a fair bit of the cellulose and hemicellulose along with the lignin. It states lignin removal is "from 29% of weight down to 2.9%". You'd apologise for your unwarranted superciliousness if you had the least bit of class about you, brb. pretty much everything you stated is wrong

"replace the 90% of structural material that you've dissolved"
how much of the wood is removed?

look up the percentages yourself if you're fascinated in knowing the answer
i feel like Ive defended my comic reply enough to would-be pedants. Sometimes I wonder what some are doing on a comedy website
