Also I can find the ref if you want, but there was a study that found that bigshot publications had higher success rates when blinded

I'm not sure "more paranoia" is an apt description of blind reviews?

Surely it's very scary for ECRs if they are openly new and naive (ie their name is obviously of an unknown)?

Also I don't feel these pressures or stresses myself because of my personality in this specific thing, so it's good to listen to others.

But women or people with "foreign" names could easily be treated worse because of open review, you can imagine that right?

Nobody will be treated worse in open peer review, quite the opposite. Ask editors. Problem is, if there is one, with more leniency.

I am an editor; there is much evidence of biases in the review process which are alleviated by blind review. also aware of my own biases.

wow, you tweet's popularity and me being its only critic suggests there is nothing wrong with traditional editorial practices. Glad to hear!

I'm not sure anybody has proposed current editorial practises are OK. In fact, quite the opposite. We are pointing out it's biased often.

It's a more subtle point we are making: any changes need to be borne out of a serious evaluation of the systemic issues.

Blinded review is not the same as closed review. In fact blinding, which can be lifted after reviewing is done, might have a place in OS.

Open science is about more meaning than just making everything transparent all the time, but also making everything more accessible.

And by accessible that means eliminating sources of bias against minorities and ERCs. I hope we can agree on some of these ideals.
