Latest review

First review round: 12.0 weeks. Overall rating: 3 (good). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
Adequate review process in the first round, but after revision in accordance with the reviewers' requests, the manuscript length was increased, and the editor thus requested that significant cuts be made which was burdensome and did not make the manuscript better. Word limits seem more important than quality.
