Latest review

Outcome: Rejected (im.).

Motivation:
The associate editor took eight weeks to decide whether to send the manuscript for peer review, and the reason seemed arbitrary in the end. There is a gross underestimation of the median timeline for the first editorial decision (4 days) on the journal's webpage.
