This brief paper traces comments on the article arXiv:1110.2685. This article, a preprint, has recently received an attention, raising errors related to the timing process within the OPERA Collaboration results in arXiv:1110.2685, that turns out to be a wrong route by which serious science should not be accomplished. A peer-reviewed status should be previously considered to assert that arXiv:1110.2685 claims a solution for the superluminal results in arXiv:1110.2685. Within arXiv:1110.2685, it seems there is an intrinsical misconception within its claimed solution, since an intrinsical proper time reasoning leads to the assumption the OPERA collaboration interprets a time variation as a proper time when correcting time intervals between a GPS frame and the grounded baseline frame. Furthermore, the author of arXiv:1110.2685 seems to double radio signals, doubling the alleged half of the truly observed time of flight, since the Lorentz transformations do consider radio signals intrinsically by construction.
