I think that I responded over Scott's blog but I can respond again perhaps from a different angle. I think it that is important to scrutinize one (major) experiment at a time.

We studied the Google 2019 claims and on the way we also developed tools that can be applied for further work and we identified methodological problems that could be relevant in other cases (or better could be avoided in newer experiments). Of course, other researchers can study other papers.

I don't see in what sense the new results by Google, Quantinuum, QuEra, and USTC are more inarguable and I don't know what experiment by IBM Scott refers to. And also I don't see why it matters regarding our study.

Actually in our fourth paper there is a section about quantum circuits experiments that deserves to be scrutinized (that can now be supplemented with a few more), and I think we relate to all examples given by Scott (except IBM) and more. (Correction: we mention IBM's 127 qubit experiment, I forgot.)
