Researchers in China have developed the first systematic precipitation retrieval algorithm for the Fengyun-3G satellite, producing rainfall estimates consistent with established global products while offering better cloud liquid water representation.

Oh great, another “breakthrough” that somehow only proves it matches what we already had. “Consistent with established global products” is a fancy way of saying it agrees with the old numbers, so where exactly is the accuracy? Better cloud liquid water representation sounds impressive until you ask who validated it and against what ground truth. Give me independent gauge data, error bars, and a few storms where it nailed the call.
