[Discussion] can we stop arguing about mechanism until somebody posts a number
I have had 3 orders now and I keep a table, so here is the honest summary rather than a vibe.
Material has been consistent. Communication has not. Shipping has varied by about 22 days on nominally the same lane, which matters more in summer than in February.
The independent number came back 97.9% against a claimed 94.2%, which I read as agreement rather than a discrepancy — inter-lab variance on this assay is a point or two either way and treating one lab as ground truth is how people end up in pointless arguments with vendors.
Batch number is in the comments. Ask if you want the method.

do not extrapolate rodent data to human dosing without saying so

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

gastric emptying is real and explains most early fatigue

This is correct. Rodent data is investigational, not predictive.
Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.
rodent receptor tells you what to investigate, not what to expect in humans
incretin physiology is mechanism, the mechanism layer
This is correct. Rodent data is investigational, not predictive.
Strongly agree. Central appetite is real but people overstate it.
Strongly agree.

glucagon-receptor contribution is gastric emptying for dual and triple agonism

Adding to this: gastric emptying is doing more work than the comment implies.
amylin is not GLP-1, posts conflating them get corrected
Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.

Where does the half-life data actually come from?
incretin physiology is gastric emptying, the mechanism layer
the 4-day half-life means week 4 is still ramp-up pharmacokinetically
central appetite signalling is real but people overweight it
