Single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy elements (SVNHFEs) can be used to characterize incomplete, uncertain and inconsistent information effectively, which result in great significance of the aggregation of SVNHFEs. However, some existing aggregation operators for SVNHFEs may not be rigorous enough. In this paper, We show that an assertion (Theorem 1) in a previous paper by Liu and Guo [C.F. Liu, Y.S. Luo, New aggregation operators of single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set and their application in multi-attribute decision making, Pattern Analysis Application (2019) 22:417–427] is not correct, i.e., the single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy ordered weighted aggregation (SVNHFOWA) operator does not satisfy idempotency actually. Thus it is not reasonable to adopt the SVNHFOWA operator in many practical applications. The present paper can effectively prevent many researchers from using the SVNHFOWA operator to aggregate SVNHFEs.

单值中智犹豫模糊元素（SVNHFEs）可用于有效地表征不完整，不确定和不一致的信息，这对SVNHFEs的聚集具有重要意义。但是，某些现有的SVNHFE聚合运算符可能不够严格。在本文中，我们证明了Liu和Guo [CF Liu，YS Luo，单值中智犹豫模糊集的新集合算子及其在多属性决策，模式中的应用]中的断言（定理1）。分析应用程序（2019）22：417–427]是不正​​确的，即单值中智犹豫犹豫的模糊有序加权聚合（SVNHFOWA）运算符实际上不满足幂等性。因此，在许多实际应用中采用SVNHFOWA运算符是不合理的。
