Oh no it's definitely a theoretical paper. Even if the theory is fully formalised and thus executable it still wouldn't give much insight on how it'd perform in the real world because theorem provers aren't the most performant programming languages.
And, FWIW, CS theorists don't really care about running programs same as theoretical physicists don't care much about banging rocks together, in both cases making things work in the real world is up to engineers.
