I hate to be one of those "I been complaining about this all along", but I have since my early college years in 2000! I didn't have quite the sophistication in the arguments today, though they were essentially the same (1/20 is arbitrary, effect size is very important but ignored, false positives bound to happen, need to consider how rare the event is, etc). I also lamented something that I feel is the core of the problem to begin with, people treated p-value = science and science = p-value. Once you do that, its easy to put blind faith into a single study that can have huge negative impacts on our freedoms and way of life. statistical significance is a tool that can be used in science, but saying that at the time produced huge defensiveness, especially from statisticians. I am glad this has finally begun to change
