Hello. Sorry for the slow response on this. I don't feel like I have the necessary expertise to be the editor on this paper.

It looks like @faroit might be a good editor for this. They are however preoccupied with other submissions at the moment so I will mark this as waitlisted for the moment. @faroit if you can take this, let me know if we can assign you as editor. Thanks.
