What’s your favourite reason for downplaying or excluding limitations in a paper?

Not sure you are looking for a serious answer, but isn't readability of the manuscript and relevance of the limitations another one? You can go on endlessly with limitations (e.g. perhaps doesn't apply to ppl with comorbidities/older age/..., imputation may have failed, ...)?

True, but I've read a number of papers recently that completely omitted discussion of major limitations in favor of minor data collection points. I think it's rare that readability is a major consideration
