The focus on 1 distinct art unit suggests a specialized application of Chemistry & Materials. For legal strategy, the reliance on 1 distinct examiner implies that outcomes for all 3 pending office actions are likely to be influenced by a singular examiner's interpretation of the prior art.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium.
