Comments:
==========================
C1: S2 I suggest to replace top-left figure by the original one from the 
cited reference: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2101.09210
There is a clear message that the region described by \mu_B/3 <3 is 
excluded from the searches of the CP
A1: I have replaced this with the one from the above reference.

C2: To make better visible how changing the collision energy one can 
explore various areas of the QCD phase diagram, you could also show the 
phase diagram adapted for STAR and entire BES program (will be helpful 
for S4)
A2: I tried to fit this onto the slide, but it appears a bit crowded. On 
slide 4, below table, I have added the chemical potential values 
corresponding to all BES-II energies.

C3: S6: mentioning what you account for systematic uncertainties and 
which effects contribute the most will help to understand these numbers
A3: I have added one sentence explaining what we account for the 
estimation of systematic uncertainties. Since the dominant source of 
contribution varies across energies and observables, I feel that listing 
all dominant source names for each observable and energy would make the 
main message of the slide complicated.

C4: S7 and the following : each figure that shows data shown on/after 
CPOD 2024, instead of labeling STAR preliminary mention as CPOD 2024. 
STAR never planned to release these results as preliminary.
A4: I change "STAR preliminary" to "STAR".

C5: S9: do not -> does not
A5: Done.

C6: S11: I suggest to remove the acknowledgement section, this talk will 
be given for the STAR Collaboration.
A6: Done
