I'd be curious to see a further breakdown of 80-100% respondents, particularly how many are at 95-99% and if there are any 100%ers
-
I'm in the 85-90% category. But that's cause I follow the hueristic that 80-90% of all content creation is crap regardless of domain or medium.

When I invest I'm often looking for securities that I expect to have a low, zero, or negative return

(point being I might be a >95%er and still think academia & publications are a net good)
