Evidence · no claims cited

Description¶

The editors established review criteria asking responding authors to structure their commentary pieces around four aspects: 'Impact/Value', 'Application', 'Limitations and Constraints', and 'Future Suggestions'. Each aspect is phrased as a question the respondent answers from their own perspective, e.g., 'What impact or value does the paper have on "Shift to Digital" from your specific perspective?' This pattern turns a review of prior work into practice-oriented dialogue.
