Turns out they don't even have to do that as demonstrated by the paper. The review process itself is broken and the world of academia is drowning in bogus publications and journals taking advantage of the "publish or perish"-mentality of contemporary academic activities. Stats have become meaningless - whenever publications try to "rate" countries by their output (be that scientific publications or patent filings), I die a little inside, knowing that most patents are trivial BS and most papers are plagiarism or generated word salat published in pay-per-submission online "journals".
