Neurofeedback tech is pretty neat. I do think this looks promising. But not everyone realizes that fda approval for technology isn’t based on efficacy. And they might not realize the clinical study you’re citing is based on 60-ish subjects, 88% of whom were white. Might be nice to see the real life data on this.

> Traditional psychotherapies for PTSD are effective

Many people who are furious that the FDA didn't approve MDMA don't acknowledge this enough (see the article below -- 65% experience some symptom reduction "in a national sample of veterans").

However, many people who are happy the FDA didn't approve MDMA oversell the efficacy of current treatments (this same article shows "only 36% experienced clinically significant improvement"). Anyway, point taken -- effect sizes matter!
