Thanks for the link, I'll try and take a deeper dive later. Cursory read is not favorable to the article, though. Problems include,

  * Having to concede that Portugal is still doing better than most of Europe.
  * Leaning on pandemic years for a lot of the excess growth.
  * A passing discussion of funding and other costs.
I see most of this was covered in the discussion here. Will see what else is mentioned.
