As the report mentions, not to be tied to the present moment is a considerable cognitive achievement that most creatures do no have the ability to do. However, to be able to escape the constraints of the present moment is not the same thing as having a wandering mind - thinking in a focused and coherent way about, for example, how I am going to run a meeting this afternoon is not the same as letting my mind wander. I'm not sure the report recognizes this distinction.
