Posing, or refusing to admit the limitations of what you've done is (in my mind) the one great crime in research, that I think should not be tolerated. But I have no problem with people being naive, speculative, and/or lazy, so long as they admit it.

very much agreed :) - I hope the fact that I really appreciate you having done this work comes through!

One more point, neither for or against the case you set out here - you may want to be careful with words like lazy, they tend to be ableist - doing a *full* literature search is hard, disproportionately for some groups (e.g. dyslexics, ASD and ADD)

and non-native language speakers!! and people without institutional access to journals, or even reliable internet (and probably many more)

Your point is well-taken, and to be honest for these reasons the only person I ever really feel comfortable accusing of laziness is myself

that's very fair - i don't think there's any external offense in what you said - but I question if it's even a fair put-down on yourself*? ascribing something to laziness is, paradoxically, lazy *you of course are the final arbiter of this

Laziness is good. I like Shalizi and Tozier but I don’t buy their theory in that note at all. I’m in favor of aggressively ignorant rediscovery/reinvention (much more robust guarantor of QA than formal replication). Full lit survey is an especially dumb burden on preprints.

I have a long rant about this is a Facebook group somewhere. This is one of the reasons I gave up on academia and turned to blogging. It is perversely hostile to rediscovery.

Would you suggest that rediscovery is an answer to the replication crisis?

Part of the answer yes

The sociology of citations, h-index would turn upside down. Also, rediscovery would lead to kind of *many worlds interpretation* of science.
