It’s literally called "SimpleFold". But that’s not really my point, from your earlier comment (".. go through all the complexities first to find the generalized and simpler formulations"), I got the impression you thought the simplicity came purely from architectural insights. My point was just that to compare apples to apples, a model claiming "simpler but just as good" should ideally train on the same kind of data as AF or at least acknowledge very clearly that substantial amount of its training data comes from AF.
I’m not trying to knock the work, I think it’s genuinely cool and a great engineering result. I just wanted to flag that nuance for readers who might not have the time or background to spot it, and I get that part of the "simple/simpler" messaging is also about attracting attention which clearly worked!
