@unreliable_narrator I understand that this is a new agent, but it's also very difficult to rein in my frustration. No one is asking for a small essay on what's wrong with my MS, that is definitely not the agent's job at this point to provide that feedback. But giving a single sentence whether it's truly not a good fit and my writing is otherwise good, or if the quality of the MS is not good enough, or if the pacing is bad, anything would be helpful. Even blunt sincerity. Hurt my feelings if you must, just give me SOMETHING. I think it's not that outlandish to expect, but it's just my opinion.
