The diversity of the comments makes it an easy and a complex task to address them. It is an easy task, since each of the commentators presented clear yet widely ranging opinions about the extent and relevance of theories in GSA, which differ astonishingly – from accusations of just presenting ‘theory-lite’ (Veit) to the very positive view that there is even more relevant theoretical discussion in GSA than mentioned by us (Kristiansen). The surprisingly diverse comments lead us to suppose that we have probably found a middle ground between the pessimistic and the more optimistic perspectives. However, commenting on the responses is also a complex task, because the only way of doing justice to them is by discussing them individually.

从悲观到乐观。回答

评论的多样性使得解决它们成为一项简单而复杂的任务。这是一项容易的任务，因为每位评论员都对 GSA 中理论的范围和相关性提出了清晰而广泛的意见，这些意见大相径庭——从指责只是提出“理论精简”（Veit）到非常积极的观点，即GSA 中的相关理论讨论甚至比我们（Kristiansen）提到的还要多。令人惊讶的多样化评论使我们假设我们可能在悲观和更乐观的观点之间找到了一个中间立场。然而，评论回复也是一项复杂的任务，因为公正对待他们的唯一方法是单独讨论。
