Swimming at low Reynolds numbers typically requires time-periodic motion that breaks time-reversal symmetry, creating an actual unsteady velocity field around swimming microorganisms. A study of the effect of ``unsteadiness'' on enhanced diffusivity and tracer displacement statistics takes a step further in considering and modeling realistic microorganisms.
