The process was fast, with no delay in editing here. On the first day of submission, the editor noticed a formatting issue and returned it. It was returned on the second day, reviewed by the chief editor on the third day, and sent for external review on the fourth day. After the revisions were made, it was sent for direct external review on the second day. During the second review, a minor issue with the images was raised, and it was fixed on the same day. Two days later, the chief editor accepted it directly. The topic is relevant.

The first review took over two months, with three reviewers. One of them raised a lot of doubts without providing any suggestions. He also specifically requested to cite the literature of a certain author, which is obviously him. The problem is that he has hardly published any papers, which is quite embarrassing. After making the revisions, it took another month to return for the second review. The other two reviewers agreed, but this particular reviewer insisted on rejecting it and continued to raise various doubts. The editor rejected the paper. I don't want to say anything anymore. Take this as a reference to avoid getting trapped.
