How would this work in practice? A paper would have to be registered as a Sokaling before first submission, along with an explanation of what the author thinks is wrong with it. A cryptographic time-locked database could ensure honesty about this.In any case, I really hope this spurs a ton of conversations... What are the humanities for?
