Yes.

“SoTA” is also often ill-defined and while important, can sometimes be a bit overhyped IMO.

Most practitioners and engineers want something that is as good as it can be or is above some threshold in accuracy, given constraints that can often be severe. If a “SoTA” approach cannot meet these real-world constraints, I would argue it’s not “SoTA” for that particular problem of interest.

If you have something that performs very well under such real-world constraints and can demonstrate value to the practitioner, it should be considered for publication by the editors.
