I would say that the author rather jumps to conclusions. That the one type of foot is Celtic and the other Saxon is far from proven. It ould for instance be that the 'Celtic' foot type is actually of pre-Celtic origin. That the foot of the people of Brittany is similar is simply assumed, while that is an important aspect, crucial to the theory.
