I guess that "militant simultaneist" may be interpreted here as a pro-Sraffian Marxist. May I suggest that there may be "simultaneists" who are not Sraffian? I met Bruna Ingrao a few years ago. My impression was that she is not interested in these debates anymore. The same may be said for a Marxian anti-Sraffa Italian economist of the '70s, Marina Bianchi, who wrote a wonderful book on The Classics and Marx on the theory of value, and now writes on methodological issues. r.b.
