This is just reporting bias. I've worked (on-and-off) in various scientific fields for ~30; it has always had its bad actors. (I even helped do the statistics for some!) I'd urge you to consider following the situations: 1. Prescientific inquiry; and, 2. PreFDA food, drug, and medicine. Both of those were orders-of-magnitude worse than what we have, now. Could we do better? Sure! Is it broken? No.
