That's not true at all. "Less than significant" is not "the numbers are meaningless", it's "the arbitrary threshold p=.05 was not met". p=.049 is not magic, p=.051 is not worthless. They have far more in common than either does with p=.011, and claiming that giving out specific numbers would make things worse is absurd. I agree that it's bad practice to go "hey, p=.09, but it could be meaningful!" But it's at least as bad to say "we cannot provide any opinion about... such differences". That's simply false, you can provide data and confidence about the topic.
