There are studies that show harm when in vitro cells are exposed for days at a time to water or salt at high concentrations too - which doesn't actually tell us that moderate or low concentrations of those things are bad either.
Having read the study, I also find it interesting that they claim taste receptors are were a factor in whether there were significant effects - with the taste blocker application also seemingly negating effects of the sweeteners. This makes me wonder why they didn't test sugar, which itself would trigger taste response then and should be compared.
Current global scientific consensus has not found the consumption of artificial sweeteners to be harmful. To suggest there is conclusive evidence of such is not accurate, but citing a single study indicates some reactionary messaging is present when people try to perpetuate fear of sweeteners.
So no, people should not be made to worry about sweeteners at this time. There is no scientific consensus against them whatsoever. Sweeteners are studied internationally by many independent research teams and markets. Aspartame itself is arguably the most studied food subject ever at this point - it has been shown to be safe in dietary form for many many decades.
Someone could come in here and say "there's bad stuff in this" and someone could post any flawed basis for their belief. And that's just not at all rational to be concerned by or planned around for your diet.

New research has discovered that common artificial sweeteners can cause previously healthy gut bacteria to become diseased and invade the gut wall, potentially leading to serious health issues.
