Exact excerpt

Although the retrievals do not distinguish decisively among cloud prescriptions, the molecular feature amplitudes observed across the HST and JWST wavelength range rule out a strongly cloud-muted terminator. While the present data provides strong constraints on H2O and CO2 and a weak hint of sulfur chemistry via H2S, the interpretation of the latter remains subject to limitations of degeneracies in retrievals among clouds, abundances, thermal structure, and overlapping opacities.
