> What can help make the literature more accessible?
Publishing code and data associated with figures. A significant amount of the confusion about the literature comes from the difference between the documentation laid out in a paper and the reality of the actual implementation. Plus any peer review of the actual code used is checking the reality of the paper, rather than a description of what we think reality is.
Making this part of the publication process is vital, because there is such a high barrier to actually requesting this information later.
