Latest review

First review round: 14.9 weeks. Overall rating: 4 (very good). Outcome: Drawn back.

Motivation:
There was a delay as one reviewer could not provide the comments in time and they had to seek another reviewer. The editorial office was very professional and informed me of this situation soon after it happened. Otherwise, everything was smooth,
