Rebuttal clarifies the validity of the SMF approach

Defends the application of SMF in fission dynamics

Addresses specific criticisms from the original article

Abstract

In this note we provide answers to criticisms made the appendix D of the article [Phys. Rev. C100, 034615 (2019)] against to the theory developed recently and known a "Stochastic Mean-Field" (SMF) approach and its applications. Briefly, we list our replies and leave the judgment to the readers.
