Latest review

First review round: 19.5 weeks. Overall rating: 2 (moderate). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
It took one month just for the paper to be assigned to an editor. Then, three and a half months later, we receive the rejection notice with just two very scant reviews that evidenced very little effort from the reviewers, some of whose comments actually contradict factual data in the paper. Either we presented the paper very badly or they did not bother reading it thoroughly.
