“…They also assume that Y = X 1 = • • • = X k is a normal Q-Gorenstein variety and consider the K-stability as opposed to the Ding stability, but this seems to be a minor difference. While the author believes that the stability condition in Definition 3.17, or its appropriately modified version, is a useful one in studying the coupled Kähler-Einstein metrics, it is important to note that none of the results in [14,29,30,37,38,49,60] seems to be affected when we adopt Definition 3.17 as the relevant notion of stability. The works [14,29,30,37,49], from the point of view of stability, essentially consider the case when (X 1 , L 1 ), .…”
