Ok, you got me. Thousands of peer reviewed papers Vs Wikipedia and xkcd.

  Xkcd was actually a joke. The wikipedia plot is based on data from the following Nature paper, from 2020: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41561-019-0400-0 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41561-019-0400-0 , you can see that by following the reference in the link to the plot. I haven't read it but I'm assuming it's not total BS. Could you provide some reference for your proposal? It would be very reassuring if it's true.
