At least once a day I remember how much I hate the absurdly low word limits in health-related journals. 3,500 (or in today's case, 4,000) is not enough words, and only serves to convey incomplete and misinformative-by-oversimplification publications.

Maybe this can be left to the editors and reviewers?! I guess the problem is a lot of scientists are just very poor writers!

Any health policy paper or qual piece of research definitely needs more than 3500 words. Otherwise it ends up being very superficial.

I propose 12k words. I'll settle for 6k but still be grumpy about it.

We should have dynamic online papers like the ones done with many bots. This review was published in 2018 & now it’s under renewal for next update. Pretty dynamic & open source. Will journals do this or accept?
