In accordance with ICML's peer review guidelines, we are unable to include text in the anonymous link. As a result, we have removed our responses to Q6 and Q8 in this link. 

However, we would be happy to address these points in detail if the reviewers could kindly comment on the rebuttal so that we can post the responses in a follow-up message. We will ensure that the final revision includes a thorough analysis of the connections between BDPO and related literature.
