<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I would like to correct the claims of Peter Thomassen. I am the PhD advisor of Nils Wisiol and unfortunately allowed Peter to join the project at a very late stage as suggested to me by Nils. To clarify: the project started
long ago before Peter joined and contrary to Peters claim’s I don’t remember any new contributions or discoveries since then. We have Emails and Overleaf logs that document everything.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In fact, since the contributions were marginal a year ago, we offered Peter Thomassen to remove himself from the paper, which he refused, but insisted to stay as a coauthor, but without contributions. For good atmosphere
we have not forced him unfortunately, ... . <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Due to my unlucky agreement to allow Peter to work with us, I decided to leave that project entirely and let the BH 2022 authors continue that work without any headaches caused by my person.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">So, please take what Peter writes with a grain of Salt.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
