Fantastic article. I’d simply begun to think of peer review as groupthink. Maybe I haven’t been that far off.

With some further reflection on the topic: The first step any writer takes before setting pen to paper is to consider audience analysis. At this point a scientific writer must first consider the peer review board as the target audience, for they are ultimately censors.

Well, I only know the alternative is that the preprint is incredibly cheap and easy to produce as evidenced in this pandemic. With peer-review, u at least have somebody, something to criticize on. Without, we each point at other folks's noise, yelling fake science.

Why can’t we just replace all these ‘selective’ journals with a Wiki? Internet publishing is free. Academia has created an artificial scarcity.

Like there are too few academic papers. Sure. If you don't like peer review, just post your paper on social media.
