Dating Bacteria is hard due to the lack of maxima. Assuming aerobes likely postdated the GOE gave us better resolved ages, but also surprised us, but not Dr Dayhoff, showing O2 use predated its atmospheric rise by 900 Mys and helped oxygenic photosynthesis to evolve. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

So glad to see this editorial with helpful insights into how Nature Microbiology editors view submissions with numerical modeling. Models are critical to understanding complex systems with non-linear behavior and feedbacks - our brains struggle with this 😵‍💫
