Note that this is about comments on the paper itself. Somebody reading this article could not reasonably be expected to have read the paper before commenting on it, not least of which because the link to it is dead (but also because reading a research paper before making a casual remark about a single graph in an article with many, wherein it is not remotely related to the main thesis of the article, is not a particularly reasonable expectation).
- SiempreViernes 4mo agoThe quote is from the page in OP, its not necessary to circumvent the dead link to see the remark (not that finding the original article is very hard in any case).
- applfanboysbgon 4mo agoYes, I understand that the quote is from the article in the OP. The point is the quote is about people commenting on the paper. A comment on the article is not a comment on the paper, and it's entirely reasonable to leave a comment on the article without reading an auxiliary paper that is both not directly available and not relevant to the larger point of the article.
