No worries, I appreciate that you took the time to read and respond!

When I first read "Originality and Contribution" at [1], I actually assumed it was a plagiarism check. It did not occur to me until now that you were referring to novelty with that. Similarly, I assumed "Impact and Significance" referred to more about whether the subject was appropriate for a given journal or not (would readers of this journal find this information significant/relevant/impactful or should it be published elsewhere?). That's a question that many journals do ask of referees, independent of overall novelty, but I see how you mean a different aspect of novelty instead.

I'm not opposed to testing your system with a manuscript of my own, but currently the one manuscript that I have approaching publication is still in the internal review stage at my national lab, and I don't know precisely when it will be ready for external submission. But I'll keep it in mind whenever it passes all of the internal checks.
