That’s fair, the “practically plagiarize” comment was admittedly harsh and quickly written.It’s obviously an allusion to the paper.

Nevertheless, referencing the LFR work and merely including a link where the paper is discussed feels a little like beating around the bush. The primary article doesn’t seem to use the words “self-similar” nor “fractal” - if you’re only interested in LFR work, why reference Mandelbrot at all?
