Latest review

Outcome: Rejected (im.).

Motivation:
The review was professionally handled and timely. However, the editorial decision appeared to misclassify a theory-driven manuscript as primarily applied work. The paper develops formal methodology and offers conceptual insights that align well with the scope of JCTC. A more nuanced evaluation of theoretical contributions would help ensure appropriate scope matching.
