And now the paper has finally been accepted, I just wanna say to all the editors: PLEASE stop sending papers back out to reviewers after 1 (at most 2) round! It’s a burden on the system when a decision could be made without reviewers’ approvals. It’s not the reviewers’ job to have a final say!

Inspired by David Lynch's character on Twin Peaks, "Fix your hearts or die" is an invitation for self reflection and the opening of hearts, or risk suffering the agony and corrosion of holding onto hate.
