The mysterious pseudo-gap (PG) phase of cuprate superconductors has been the subject of intense investigation over the last thirty years, but without a clear agreement about its origin. Owing to a recent observation in Raman spectroscopy, of a precursor in the charge channel, on top of the well know...
