But this cost is quite high, and if the articles already included are withdrawn, the magazine will be very unhappy. After all, it is proved that, as they say, reviewing manuscripts really delays time.
However, from another perspective, SCI journals have long known about it and have the obligation to inform the authors.
The following is a template of the rejection letter for reference only:
Dear editor:
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to revise our works. However, after carefully reading the opinions put forward by your references, we are sorry to say that there are serious problems in our work that need to be solved before we can resubmit them to you for consideration. In addition, we found that the latest installation information was lost and many parts needed to be rewritten. Therefore, we decided to withdraw our manuscript from the magazine because we were worried that we could not complete so many revisions in a reasonable time.
Thank you very much for your consideration.
sincerely
