The submission references a real but apparently dormant entity, 'Bar Harbor BioTechnology' (founded 2006, spun off from The Jackson Laboratory), but contains significant red flags and verifiable falsehoods. The user alias 'BlazeStone' appears to be unrelated to the company (possibly referencing a fictional character or unrelated entity), and the traction claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false for a niche B2B molecular biology tool provider. The audience reach claim of 'everyone' is also inaccurate. While the underlying legacy company had valid utility in gene expression analysis, the submission itself lacks credibility, seemingly mixing junk data with a legacy company's identity.
