Motivation:
I received high-quality reviews but it took really a long time to get the paper accepted. According to paperplaza, the reviews were overdue. Specifically, it took 14.6 weeks to switch from "conditionally accepted" state to "accepted" state; in this case, I received only the AE report specifying I addressed all the (minor) comments.

Motivation:
The duration of the first review took 8 months, that is very long. From the 3 review reports received, 2 of them were very positive and constructive whilst the third reviewer was very negative and very rude. His criticism was not based on the scientific content of the manuscript but rather on what he thought was appropriate to address in the article.
