Dude, first let me congratulate you on breaking the 25,000 post barrier (today). That’s a seriously impressive feat, Chuck Yeager like…and thank you for sharing all your due diligence, it’s been extremely helpful. No joke.
But back to business: why not release TLD prior to the journal article? I just don’t get it. If everything (TLD, Article and BLA) is an independent event, then why the need to bunch all the information together? At least based on Iron Mike’s chat, it doesn’t appear the company is close to any kind of update any time soon.
