Latest review

Outcome: Rejected (im.).

Motivation:
I was quite disappointed with the process. There was no feedback about any progress on the article (the system continuously said, "Awaiting assignment to editor" or something like that) until we sent repeated inquiries. Finally, we got a desk rejection four months after submission claiming that the article was off-topic. Whether that was the case or not, it should not have taken four months to tell us that.
