I didn't read this as them denying to publish something more extensive because of the topic. They obviously didn't go far beyond that & help him create it, but I'd not expect them to. I do expect this to be something the ideological opposition would do further their agenda. And all I want is people to take responsibility and resist such a deal, unless they actually of what that group stands for. Don't make a deal with the devil. The enemy of your enemy is not necessarily your friend.

Accepting a letter to the editor would give Cahill a platform to share his disagreement, without Nature having to actually admit error or fault. I think that an error like this probably should require some sort of acknowledgement from the original article's authors and/or the editorial staff. > Don't make a deal with the devil.
