No, it is a little worse. He mentions the usual grant-squirrel-wheel.
But he remains silent on the BS part, which I guess he got bored with. I think he got disgusted the day he realized, that writing ''scientific'' papers about virtual economies and pseudo-medical sensor devices and about volcanoes -- as serious they might sound to an administrative bureaucrat handing out pennies for the researchers -- it is just plain BS, even if he may have some facts right. It is making life worse, by diluting the cool stuff with useless junk (fail often mantra, but for its on sake).
If one stops admiring the Emperor's new clothes and breaks ranks on BS groupthink, there is no surprise in exclusion and ostracism. It is a no brainer necessity to leave.
And even [one might even cynically write especially] Harvard is certainly no stranger to ''Scientific misconduct'' -- just a recent example:
