Proteus Syndrome / Neurofibromatosis

We know that scientists have now identified the gene responsible for Proteus Sydrome, which is a fabulous breakthrough. Are they now saying then, beyond any doubt, that Joseph had Proteus? From all accounts I've read, Joseph's level of deformity is still unparalleled among present day Proteus patients, (that's common knowledge), so, I'm wondering, has the Proteus vs Neurofibromatosis mystery now been laid to rest?

Gene ID'd and Joseph's condition understood? Now that would be a breakthrough!
