You're missing the point of this excellent paper: it's about structure, not content. Methods structure is not very important and the easiest to get right... As long as all info is there. This says nothing against reproducibility etc

Methods structure isn't that important, but methods content is crucial. If the methods are incomplete or inaccurate = bad science. Methods MUST give all info necessary for others to replicate. If not = no longer science, just an interesting story about something the author claims

The quote is pretty much taken out of context. This paper gives advice on how to structure a paper. I have seen few papers where the structure of the methods precluded reading. I have seen countless badly structured intros/results/discussions/abstracts. Give examples?
-
It is not. The paper has two sentences about the methods and they both say that people don't read it. The paper misses guidance on how to structure the methods section so that people are encouraged to read it.

We must ask ourselves though, what we can and cannot possibly write down in methods sections. In "Changing Order: Replication and Induction in Scientific Practice", Collins argues that a requirement for any successful replication is tacit knowledge. It cannot be written down:pic.twitter.com/4bL9IGt6GV

When we go in that direction ;-), I want details about essential/unconventional choices too. Why did you make them and what impact can they have on the results?

Embarrassing is the right word. Especially in a field like computational biology, where methods get more and more complex.

Do you know of another publication that summarizes how to write a research article that you would recommend? I would love to read it

There are many and great books too. But take it easy: pick a very good article in your field and look how they structured it. Use that as a 'template'
