>Publishing costs are far, far lower than they used to be, but good proofreading and style-guide checking still takes time too. Absolutely, 100% agreed. Perhaps this was lost in my confrontational tone, but I agree that academic journals should be paid something. I'm mostly opposed to paywalls, followed by the amount we're paying. Where I partially disagree is in the fact that the editing tasks you describe are increasingly offloaded to the submitter.
