This is a poor misreading of the source. You’re talking about early flares with a dual band FM seeker threat. The 9L was a single band FM seeker and was going up against broader band flares. That source also has errors. GAR-4A is AIM-4G, a nitrogen cooled InSb detector of a fundamentally different design from the nitrogen cooled AM PbS seeker of 9G.
There are also a lot of comments in this thread that take tests and evaluations and extrapolate them to absolutes. Missiles are not the perfect things games present them as, and even if an evaluation states that they were not able to get a 9L to be decoyed if it was locked onto the plume, that does not mean that this is always the case, but rather it was the case in their certain scenario.
