1/ I'm sure the STS folks can say this better but, Single-author papers or projects aren't interdisciplinary. They can't be.

The National Science Foundation dedicates resources to developing general engineers & scientists. Many architects describe themselves as generalists. Special operator are generalists. I'm a generalist. There are several occupations that are interdisciplinary.

As program manager of basic research, I funded principal investigators who could execute & communicate great science across disciplines. Seminal work speaks to many not to just hyper isolated specialists. Define a narrow discipline & research isn't basic anymore. It's applied.

So I respectfully disagree. Certainly the more applied the research is, the more authors I expect on a paper. However there are many generalists who are hardworking, ethical researchers who produce valuable work.

I mostly disagree, too. There was a lot of convos in this thread that changed my mind (or, more accurately, framing/question.) In particular,https://twitter.com/generativist/status/1112086829358997504 …

And yes, they do not :( The first time I read the quote below, I thought it was vapid and wrong.

You spurred a rich and timely discussion. I'm developing a paper on deference and I've written on arrogance in the past. What mature work looks like is kind of surprising when we study it intently.

I will! Here's an earlier view in the work where we were working on classifiers & artificial neural networks aka deep learning. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/269996941_Fusing_and_filtering_arrogant_classifiers …
