    So I take it any little misunderstandings with study sections are due to incompetent review and factual errors?

    I submitted something last week that had been worked on by at least five people over the course of the previous month. I reviewed in in Commons and only then discovered that two different figures were labeled as Figure X. I withdrew it, corrected it, resubmitted it, then castigated all of the co-investigators for not spotting such a glaring faux pas in the first place. Idiots!
