* Nowhere in the paper did they identify a clear mechanism ( coupling ) linking the magnetosphere and earthquakes.
* Nowhere did they illustrate the magnitude of any difference in magnetic flux within the crust or below it, as a function of space weather.
* Nowhere is a linkage between lithospheric, asthenospheric, upper mantle, or lower mantle magnetic flux and seismicity provided.
* Coincidence of space weather does not constitute causality.
* 90% of Earth's crust is oxygen.
* The crust is mostly silicate rock which isn't even magnetic or electrically conductive.
* Any presumption that the lithosphere would react uniformly in a variable magnetic flux would be highly dubious.
* For their density, and an average thickness of 420-miles, tectonic block segments of the crust would require unimaginable 'horsepower' to unlock fault asperities and allow displacement-induced earthquakes.
* The authors might want to provide magnetic properties and electrical conductivity of all crustal areas affected by the alleged space weather, earthquake anomalies, along with the strength of fields within the planet associated with those in space, and provide the mathematics which demonstrate the 'horsepower' required to move thousands of mountains simultaneously.
