This is a great response. I tapped out something longer about not being as particularly impressed with the paper and the headline here on HN, but as an rheumatologist just wanted to say your last two paragraphs well said.

Hi @zeagle, sorry to hijack the thread (didn’t see a way to DM you)

I'm a PhD student working on a new lupus diagnostic blood test approach [1]. Hoping to steer the project towards true clinical needs.

I'd love to ask for your feedback as a technologist + rheumatologist on a few lupus + RA diagnostic directions we're considering. Would they actually be useful in your practice?

Would you be open to a quick chat? My email is [email protected].

Many thanks!
