I think it's important to point out that reading the abstract and then throwing it into gpt4 would result in a more informative article than the current one. The article spends about a third of its time waxing loquacious about MOND - hossenfelder's own theory - before dismissing the current paper for having equations that are just "too simple" . Now I'm not a physicist. I'm an applied category theorist working in business process modeling of all things. But when I was reading hossenfelder's article I was hoping it would describe how oppenheim models the spectral dispersion of stochastic gravity. This is the linchpin of how oppenheim predicts physically observable phenomenon from the model. That was missing. There have been other articles, which at least mentioned it in passing. I was hoping hossenfelder, being a physicist, could help clarify that for a wider audience. They made a choice not to.

  In your reference [1] we see that hossenfelder has worked on their own version of MOND: "Testing MOND using the redshift-dependence of radial acceleration – Sabine Hossenfelder and Tobias Mistele propose a parameter-free MOND model they call Covariant Emergent Gravity and suggest that as measurements of radial acceleration improve, various MOND models and particle dark matter might be distinguishable because MOND predicts a much smaller redshift-dependence.[81]" That is the theory I'm talking about. It also seems like I exaggerated how much of the article was dedicated to MOND, which was my bad. The article is still poor coverage of the actual research
