Latest review

First review round: 11.0 weeks. Overall rating: 5 (excellent). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
Article rejected, but based on three review reports that were received very rapidly. Not the outcome desired, but happy to receive it rapidly. The reviewers seemed rather knowledgeable on the topic, although one reviewer recommended rejection based on an aspect of the article that they admitted was not their expertise. That was disappointing, but the overall decision was based on comments of all three reviewers.
