This is the second time you wrote a comment claiming it's a third of the essay. This time around, I feel like I should point out I went back and checked and it's in 6 sentences across 3 paragraphs in a 18 paragraph article. I don't know why you started a new account to make wildly exaggerated claims about a pretty good article, but here we are |

Re: making two comments:
I made the first point to criticize the low quality of the article. It is a low quality and dismissive article that misses an opportunity to talk about the technical meat of the theory, even through analogy. That's still true.
In the second comment I mentioned the mond thing it because it was directly related to a reader's misunderstanding, and because I felt introducing mond into the article was a red herring that had contributed to this misunderstanding. They reader thought this was specifically a MOND theory, and was therefore dismissing it out of hand. I don't think we should dismiss this theory so easily as that.
Re: Alt account
This is my only account. I lost the credentials to my old account, and it wasn't linked to my email.
Re: criticism
I drop stink bombs on things that I think are likely to misinform, and if I am wrong, I'm happy to correct myself.
Re: correction
I thank you for your comment and your correction. I know it was probably not very pleasant to write, and I know my self correction is not to the extent that you wanted, but your paragraph count helped me see I was exaggerating the MOND claim. Overcoming my own tendency to exaggerate things is very important for me, since it gets me in trouble, or gets my otherwise good arguments dismissed. I sincerely thank you for helping me with that.
Re: changing my opinion about the article
I still regard this article as an opaque and low effort treatment of the work at hand. Perhaps you could express how a particularly clear point in the article helped you understand more from the paper when you were reading it? That kind of testimony could help me understand how to see this as a good article, and to see where the value is. Thanks!
