Formally (adverb of formal) makes no sense in this context. Did you mean former (as in; “previously”)?

| Oct 14 at 3:20 | comment | added | Todd Wilcox | What kind of answer are you looking for? You can’t make people change how they read your work, so either you take their critique seriously and make changes or you don’t. Are you asking whether you should trust more in critiques and make the changes even if you think they make the paper worse? | |
| Oct 13 at 17:21 | comment | added | Lodinn | "They just did not put enough effort in understanding my great ideas" - why would they (or anyone)? And where does it leave you? If you failed to either 1) make your point extremely accessible OR 2) convince them that putting the extra effort into understanding will be highly beneficial. No one cares until you either make them to care or happen to align with their preexisting interests. Perhaps bit harsh and nihilistic, but generally accurate. | |

| Oct 13 at 11:05 | comment | added | MisterMiyagi | This question feels way too broad. Yes, the general answer is "explain it better" but if you need more specific ones then this is covering too much ground. The way one can clarify things to an advisor who is physical in reach versus a reviewer who is only reachable asynchronously for limited time are totally different. | |
