First review round: 9.0 weeks. Overall rating: 3 (good).
Outcome: Rejected.
Motivation:
We submitted an interdisciplinary manuscript to this journal. The editors sent our manuscript to four reviewers to cover all areas presented in the manuscript. Three reviewers raised minor issues and one reviewer suggested rejection. The latter reviewer stated that the reviewer has lots of experience in the field and they do not want the field to move in the direction we proposed. They did not provide any critics about the results, methods, or conclusions we made. The editor followed the advise of the reviewer suggesting rejection, and the editor recommended us to radically rethink our work. This journal publishes very good quality manuscripts but after this submission, it became clear that this is not a place for publishing work that propose new concepts.
