Professor Massimiliano Sala from the University of Trento pointed out that many crucial details were missing from the report. He stressed that the significance of the breakthrough would largely depend on whether the scientists were able to break RSA keys of a size comparable to those used in real-world applications, such as banking. Sala noted, "There is no evidence of that."
Professor Takaya Miyano from Ritsumeikan University questioned the practical relevance of the results. He highlighted that the length of the integer factorized by the Shanghai researchers (22 bits) is much shorter than actual RSA integers used in practice, which are typically 1,024 bits or more.
