% Autonomous decisions (autonomous twinning) from~\cite{DBLP:conf/sc/BrewerMKWBHSGGW24} is inherent to digital twinning -- it is better left unsaid in the table.
% I.e., the foundation of any DT is autonomous decisions, so without them they don't qualify as a DT.
% ChatTwin mentions that they evaluate their system on their own-engineered digital twin, but they absolutely not name it. Who knows why.
