Beaker culture replaced Britain’s neolitihic population? I don’t think so…

Britain’s neolithic population replaced by the invading Beaker population…
That just doesn’t sound right in the slightest. Something is clearly wrong here. This study seems to have been conducted in black and white only.
While genetics appear to show a “90% shift”, the archaeological artefacts suggest otherwise.
I just do not see an invading / migrating people arriving in Britain (along with their beakers of course!) and practically replacing the entire native population. Warfare would not account for such a mass disappearance, and the island natives would have already been exposed to any infectious diseases from the continent through trade networks.
I’m putting my money on yet another study conducted with the blinkers on…
