Afrezza results seem to be unbelievable, but that is not necessarily a good thing. Doctors as well as patients seem to "know" that it impossible to dramatically lower HbA1c without the risk of dangerous lows. Here is Brian Sharp interviewed by Afrezzauser about his recent endo appointment.
How did you feel when you got the news your A1C was 5.7?
I felt awesome! To have the lowest A1C I ever had plus it was confirmation of the results I was getting from my CGM.
What was your doctor’s reaction?
My Dr.’s reaction was mixed. She was blown away that I had a A1c that low, but was also concerned that I could be going low. I however went to the appointment prepared and showed her my CGM results. They clearly show that I don’t get any significant lows using Afrezza.

The data, along with the explanation of rapid uptake effects and quick insulin clearing can mitigate this; yet another reason the slow launch makes sense.

I liked this too:
"Best appointment I’ve had, EVER. Everyone in the office got word about it. I even announced it to the people in the waiting room on my way out. Seems to me they should try Afrezza also!"
