@elduvelle @kofanchen @albertcardona this is all really interesting and probably something I'll have to learn about some day. But I think there's a key point you're missing here. I could find papers that I have just as strong disagreements with in any journal that intersects my field. But usually you don't get to see that. Strong disagreements with a paper is great. It helps a field make progress when someone who doesn't understand the subtleties as well as an expert blunders in and starts smashing things.
