Ideal: Citations represent an intellectual chain-of-custody. Reality: It's mostly a combination of signalling that you've cited cannon and providing evidence in favor of your arguments without really doing so.

There *are* benefits to signalling and anchoring in the literature. Like, I'm oversimplifying and building a straw man, too. But, when you think about the reality, the downsides are more legible.

E.G. Women are under-cited because they are under-read because they are under-cited because they have less signalling value (fewer historical opportunities) and they're less bundled with cannon because of the ensuing preferential attachment problems.

(Plus, the intellectual chain of custody argment is a farce anyway, especially in the historical context. Again, eg: how many women's ideas and theories have their bosses name on them alone?!)
