Motivation: I appreciate the speed, and very much the fact that the editor responded in depth to my inquiries. I do however find the trend towards regarding non mammalian model organisms as second class to be very short sighted. If the bar is much much higher to publish in these organisms, the publishing industry is essentially driving groups that work on these things out of business. The in vivo rigor that such inquiries provide will thus be increasingly lost from the scientific enterprise.
