Same pattern here, and in the same order. The detail I would add is minor and it is already implied above.

A narrower follow-up, since the general answer is now clear:

What the dose-response curve actually looks like above 1.7mg, because the trial means hide how few people account for the extra loss?

The FLOW trial results on renal function and renal outcomes: semaglutide 1.0mg reduced the composite kidney outcome by 24% (HR 0.76, p=0.0003) in CKD patients with T2DM[1].

The trial was stopped early for efficacy — always a strong signal. GFR decline was 1.16 mL/min/1.73m²/year slower with semaglutide. This positions GLP-1 agonists alongside SGLT2 inhibitors as pillars of cardiorenal protection in T2DM.

Agreed on the substance. I would put less weight on the timescale, because two months of anything is not enough to distinguish a trend from a wobble.
