That feels extreme. Zero is a cold, dark, lonely number. Maybe it’s correct—i dont know. Ive worked on only a couple of projects in this space, and while the incentives certainly involved publishing, i dont feel that it equated to abandoning the SciMethod. Instead, it was the cost to pay for the ability to continue doing science.
Can you really stand by ZERO? How about a 1%. Meet me somewhere above zero, or, if you’d be so kind, make a compelling case why were truly rock bottom.

It exists but not to an extent the impact to the overall social structure is actually functionally impactful They serve as “impossible standards” and generally excluded as outliers - occasionally as leaders but in many cases they are assassinated for challenging authorities or otherwise demonized.
