To "write for the public" you have to write for non-academic journals; why should it be that academic journals don't write for "the public"?

Because then you'd have little left of academic knowledge, which requires, you know, a different kind of (and more) work.

Climate scientists! We can't understand your complex formulas and models. Can you please only use arithmetic?

Academics should write for the public. Academic writing & public writing shouldn't merge. Both would lose.

I'd obviously benefit from any counting of "public" writing but I think it can be a diff category, not replacing academic work.
