On a lab perspective this is ingenious as he has found a mild way to afford intimate and thorough mixing.

We all know about reaction heat/transfer, viscosity, and solid reactants ;)

One of the first questions is:
Do we really need a solvent?

Then: What is the benefit of wasting half of the vessel volume with an inert compound we have to take care of in workup, increasing cost?
