A recent publication describes results obtained by in-beam {gamma}-ray spectroscopy of excited states of {sup 92}Rh and concludes, by mainly using extrapolated Q values, that the previously reported direct two-proton decay of {sup 94}Ag (21{sup +}) to {sup 92}Rh is very difficult to reconcile with the {gamma}-ray data. We present evidence that this conclusion may be misleading.
