Complaint to the universe mostly. I do have very little domain knowledge. The thing that vexes me is that the "errors" made are consistent across the papers I've been reading. Most of them are in the Cambridge Handbook of Expertise and Expert Performance, which is a collection of 40 odd papers trying to lay down the foundations of the field, so I'll go out on a hunch to say that these are decent papers from a reasonable subset of authors across fields (sociology, ethnography, expert systems, cognitive psychology, etc.). Now if the issues are consistent, there must be reasons they crop up again and again. It could be that there's a good underlying reason I'm missing. It could be that the academic environment trains people to write papers in this way. It could be that it's just the papers I've been reading that exhibit these issues. It could be that the difficulty of writing academically causes people to write in this manner. Without domain knowledge, I just cannot tell, but I would like to know. For example, as a specific issue which is understandable to me, putting clear statements in question ("the sky may be blue"). Statements need to be defensible, strong statements are hard to defend, ergo authors resort to qualifying everything as 'potentially'. A specific issue that is hard to understand for me is obfuscating similar statements. Semantic meaning is retained, but the parse tree looks different. The statements have clear relation (A->B B->C, or A->B, C->D,...), and obfuscation is more work than just writing out their relation. Why then, do authors do that? My questions were roughly, "Are there writing issues in most academic papers?" (Seems like yes), "are these specific recurrent items issues, or conscious decisions? If they are issues, why do they arise? Is they are conscious decisions, what motivates them?". Sorry if it's bothersome, but since I'm a relative novice, my questions aren't necessarily clear. Maybe I'll have a chance to get an answer for some of the other questions later on as I'm more experienced. Thank you by the way.
