I’m personally tired of scientists who “address it” by dutifully calling out some subset of the problematic aspect of their approach, and then go ahead and publish low-quality results for the headline.
An analogy for this one could be saying something like “I know it sucks when people say unkind things, but I think you’re stupid.” Acknowledging the problem does nothing to prevent it or resolve it. It just means at some level the person knows what they’re doing is wrong, and they aren’t self-disciplined or integrated enough to stop.
It burdens the (numerous) other parties with the effort, in the same way scientific results like this do.
