So the MELOPIS brain imaging study is not interesting?

It is interesting for what it shows rather than for what someone wanted it to show.

Agree that neuroinflammation term won’t get us anywhere, especially if we then end up comparing to diseases like MS where the picture is so different. Still that tracer is an interesting signal. How would one better and more carefully interpret and name that finding suggestive of activated astrocytes in those regions then?

Suggestive of activated astrocytes sounds fine to me - if that is a valid interpretation.
