    It’s not what you wanted to say, but it is what the words you wrote effectively meant.

    Nature doesn’t lend you credibility. You and your colleagues read Nature because it’s how you filter out the trash.
    Researchers agree to have it that way. I will not yield on that argument. You do, you agree to it by majority to this day.

      By this logic, you and everyone else agree to climate change. Everyone in Venezuela agrees to Maduro.

      It has nothing to do with majority, it’s a collective action and balance of power.

      That’s okay. If you view the journals as glorified blogs, I agree that they’re unnecessary. They aren’t and do more than that even though they’re also doing a lot of bad stuff with sky high profit margins. If you’re not open for changing your views, I don’t see the point of discussing any more. Appreciate the back and forth, tho!
