No scientific & basic discussions on data analysis and interpretationNo discussion of how a variation of the size of the chosen analysis
window would affect the significance of the hypothetical peak.
No relative peak strength analysis of all the 214Bi peaks in the region of interest.
There is no presentation of the entire spectrum to compare relative peak strengths
There are three unidentified peaks in the region of analysis that have great
significance than the 2039-keV peak. No discussion of the origin of these peaks.
No discussion of the relative peak strengths before and after the
single-site-event cut. This is needed to elucidate the peaks’origins
No simulation to demonstrate that the analysis correctly finds true peaks or that
it would find no peaks if none existed.
No discussion of how the conclusions depend on different mathematical models.
Previous data 2 of lower limit of 1.9 × 1025 y (90%) in conflict
with the “best value” of the new KDHK of 1.5 × 1025 y.This indicates
a dependence of the results on the analysis model and the BG evaluation.
SummarySummary1.A simple analysis of the 214Bi peaks demonstrates that thepeak finding procedure used by KDHK produced spuriouspeaks near the ββ(0ν) endpoint.
2. The existence of these claimed peaks is crucial to the KDHK claim of a peak at 2039 keV interpreted as 0νββ.
3.All the peaks claimed in the 2000-2080 keV region may bespurious leaving the entire count rate due to an uniform BG.Alternatively, if all the peaks are real but unidentified, theputative 2039-keV feature may be simply another of thoseunidentified lines.4.These two examples emphasize the importance of addressing allthe items listed in the Introduction.
By failing to address these issues, the KDHK paperdoes not support its claim of evidence for ββ(0ν).

Concluding remarksConcluding remarks1. ββ is the realistic probe presently able to study a. Majorana ν : Lepton number ∆L=2. b. Absolute mass scale with <mν>=ΣmjcjU2
j in the 0.01~0.05 eV region of interest and CP phase.
2. Present detectors give mass limits of 0.3~1.5 eV, which are limited by sensitivities of 0.3-1 eV.
3. Interesting are future detectors with sensitivity of <mν> 0.01~0.06 eV to get the neutrinomasses, the mass spectrum and CP.
