Consider that our sun contains 99.86% of the mass of our Solar System.
Bear in mind the headline is about total spectrum of elements in entire galaxies ... eg: as in looking at our galaxy, the entire milky way, from a distance that makes it dwindle to a near point and difficult to estimate how many stars make it up.
Of all the many galaxies that we can see, this is a story about a handful that are mostly hydrogen and helium .. more so than what we see as typical for galaxies.
