Can Texas Instrument's INA332 really be used for EEG?

On TI's datasheet, it specifically lists EEG as one of INA332's potential uses.

EEGs are microvolt level signals, and the INA332 has input offsets of +/- 2 milliVolts.

73db CMRR is quite low, but I argue the input offsets make it impossible to measure a microvolt level signal effectively.

This is an instrumentation amplifier "Designed for low cost"... however I would argue it is not difficult, but physically impossible to pick up an EEG signal using this IC.
