Desk note: Monexus framed this as a workflow story rather than a discovery breakthrough, the news is in what gets rejected earlier, not in any new compound. Sources cited are limited to the PHYS dispatch and the underlying Science X summary, which is consistent with our sourcing policy on early-stage scientific reporting where peer-reviewed detail has not yet been verified.
