Comment on Enzymes work as 'Maxwell's demon' by using memory stored as motion

the researchers constructed a theoretical model where the transient increase in motility served as a “memory” of the enzyme’s immediate past reaction event. The enzyme used this information to leave the product molecules, thereby eliminating the probability of the reverse reaction.
So if I’m understanding correctly, just after an enzyme catalyzes a reaction it “remembers” that the products it just created must be nearby and kicks itself away from them?
