A note on contact manifolds with infinite fillings

We use spinal open books to construct contact manifolds with infinitely many different Weinstein fillings in any odd dimension > 1, which were previously unknown for dimensions equal to 4n+1. The argument does not involve understanding factorizations in the symplectic mapping class group.
