The abstract supports the need for scanning probe instrumentation and molecule-junction measurement conditions.; requires instrumentation for scanning probe measurements

Independent follow-up evidence is still limited. Validation breadth across biological contexts is still narrow. Independent reuse still looks limited, so the evidence base may be fragile. No canonical validation observations are stored yet, so context-specific performance remains under-specified.
