Latest review

First review round: 8.7 weeks. Overall rating: 2 (moderate). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
The submission process is very smooth, however, the website indicates that review time averages ~1 month, which signficantly shorter than we experienced, especially after revision. It didn't appear that reviewers with the expertise we were targeting were selected based on the questions and misinterpretations that were made.
