It's certainly not a merit-based system. Not that you needed this linked-to evidence to believe it, as daily life gives us tons too, but nice to see it vindicated:https://twitter.com/GaetanBurgio/status/1034755964317007872 …

This is cool! And of course frustrating.
-
I'm going to blog about this (what you described in the OP — but ofc my case) BTW.
-
Oh awesome topic for blog. Looking forward to it!

To be fair, your case sounds very very nasty. In some ways worse than rejection perhaps? Unprofessional.
-
It is unprofessional. But still an improvement over rejection I think. Not for the paper, mind you. It won’t gain anything by this. But it at least has a chance to get published now.

Ah, OK, good.
