Pretty clear to me.

Exactly like I said.
Additionally, nowhere is it said that "the system" includes the cryocooler. Since IMEC doesn't make cryocoolers, it would be unreasonable to assume that their "system" includes one.
This quantum stuff is starting to get even more scammy than cryptocurrency.
