I braced myself for actual harsh critique there but that was rather mild! Phew.

Not THAT easily replicated but given how well funded our competitors are and we are bootstrapped I would prefer to wait until most startups participating in this wave burn through their funds instead of publishing relatively novel but not overly expensive to replicate twists.

We'll come up with better explanations of how the thing works without hinting at technical difficulties we faced and their solutions.

The rightful point was made, thank you. You were not harsh at all.
