QSOFA score in identifying the septic patients according to Sepsis 1.0 or Sepsis 2.0, putting new wine into old bottles?

We read the interesting article by Barbara et al. [1], who conducted a retrospective chart review study and found that emergency medical services (EMS) patients with positive quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) were more likely to be septic upon admission to the emergency department (ED). Though this study sounds scientific, we still have some questions and different views after reading the article [1].
