Damn, that’s one hell of a way to say “is this any good though?”. Too many words for such a simple question.

Pretty much, lol. I started to say some other things but decided to say less.

But "how well the underlying background research makes this outcome expected" does not mean "is this any good though".

It's also an actually interesting question.

It's one thing to find some things hard to follow, it's another to be proud of it.
