Abstract

Here I provide additional experimental information and criticise the analysis, modelling, interpretation and claims presented in the recent paper [Nature Communications 11, 4942 (2020)]. I argue that the authors have no clear experimental evidence of Anderson localisation (as they claim) and their numerical simulations are very far indeed from reproducing the experiment, as stated in their article. Furthermore, some effects that are ascribed to real physical mechanisms are revealed to be simply artefacts.
