Latest review

First review round: 19.0 weeks. Overall rating: 1 (bad). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
Reviewer 1 simply stated that the manuscript did not fit the scope of the journal. Reviewer 2, on the other hand, stated the same thing but then also added several angry comments. The comments were very opinionated, and not scientifically based. No constructive feedback was provided and, overall, the review was very unhelpful.
