Two claimed proofs of Whitehead asphericity conjecture seem to have received almost no attention. Is there a reason for this?

One proof is in 2021 preprint by Elton Pasku: An answer to the Whitehead asphericity question. The second proof is by Akio Kawauchi, and was published in 2024 (according to author's website): Whitehead aspherical conjecture via ribbon sphere-link. Neither paper has any citations, not counting Akio Kawauchi citing himself and the 2021 preprint.

I'm nowhere close to understanding even the statement of the conjecture, let alone the proofs, I'm just curious about this situation.
