Recently it has been argued that a correct reading of the quantum fluctuations of the vacuum could lead to a solution to the cosmological constant problem. In this work we critically examine such a proposal, finding it questionable due to conceptual and self-consistency problems, as well as issues with the actual calculations. We conclude that the proposal is inadequate as a solution to the cosmological constant problem.

    A scalar field with nonlinear coupling to curvature dynamically drives the Ricci scalar to zero, converting de Sitter expansion into H=1/(2t).
