I moved from CS into Earth science a decade ago and I was similarly appalled at the state of affairs in the beginning. First, this doesn't have anything to do with how smart people are, it's a question of time and other resources.

It's problematic when data publisher != data user/paper writer. I'm not familiar enough with DOI minting and therefore don't know what issues DOI generation on large scales for miniscule changes in the data might bring.

Yes, but it's not globally recognizable. that's why doi's are standardized through ISO https://www.doi.org/ Internally you could implement a DOI->HASH mapping, but a quilt hash isn't going to help in

Any thoughts on adding DOIs? It's a complex subject wrt versioning, in particular (new DOI per version? How to keep track?). It would help tremendously with the academic community; for the bean counting.
