> Imagine you start the same trend, but everyone tries for once to contribute something science wise original to society, so the problem is real, but the potential is greater. I know you aren't totally serious, but this won't work, most likely. The "advantage" of having a tick like that is not just that it gives you attention, it's something absolutely low-effort and instant gratification. Contributing to science is anything but. Plus, even if individuals tried to do so, it's quite easy to miss newest research or fall for a fallacy, which will make for a net-negative contribution if you are not careful.
