Hi Larry,
I've been reading abstracts like this one recently, and maybe it's explains why we don't see things in a similar way? The article you attached, talks of the accumulation of lactic acid causing fatigue in a cell, whereas the articles I've been reading talk of lactic acid being produced to reduce cellular acidosis.
Biochemistry of exercise-induced metabolic acidosis.
'When the ATP demand of muscle contraction is met by mitochondrial respiration, there is no proton accumulation in the cell, as protons are used by the mitochondria for oxidative phosphorylation and to maintain the proton gradient in the intermembranous space'
My interest is regarding my own brain fog, because if I improve buffering and support my mitochondria, my symtoms dramatically improve.
Found this abstract on creatine as well..

'Disturbances of the CK system have been observed in muscle, brain, cardiac, and renal diseases as well as in cancer. On the other hand, Cr and Cr analogs such as cyclocreatine were found to have antitumor, antiviral, and antidiabetic effects and to protect tissues from hypoxic, ischemic, neurodegenerative, or muscle damage'
