-\section{Relationship with previous work}
-
-The title of our paper and that of \citeauthor{Muller_2006_Marginal} suggest
-they address the same topic, but this is not the case
-\cite{Muller_2006_Marginal}. That work differs in three important and
-fundamental ways. First, it describes minima of the TAP free energy and
-involves peculiarities specific to the TAP. Second, it describes dominant
-minima, not a condition for finding subdominant marginal minima. Finally, it
-focuses on minima with a single soft direction (which are the typical minima of
-the low temperature Sherrington--Kirkpatrick TAP free energy), while we aim to
-avoid such minima in favor of ones that have a pseudogap (which we argue are relevant
-to out-of-equilibrium dynamics). The fact that the typical minima studied by
-\citeauthor{Muller_2006_Marginal} are not marginal in this latter sense may
-provide an intuitive explanation for the seeming discrepancy between the proof
-that the low-energy Sherrington--Kirkpatrick model cannot be sampled
-\cite{ElAlaoui_2022_Sampling} and the proof that a message passing algorithm
-can find near-ground states \cite{Montanari_2021_Optimization}: the algorithm
-finds the atypical low-lying states that are marginal in the sense considered
