Quite true. The issue of the peer review process is an ongoing
one. Sometimes the bias of the peers gets in the way. But that's
troubles at the top. Think meme. Someone publishes a study that
your cat doesn't love you. It goes viral. "See, told you so"
etc. I looked at the study. It was a 12 cat study and the
metrics they used for the love metrics for dogs. It was
ridiculous. Publishable? Sure. Good methodology? Mostly. But the
setup? The conclusion? The resulting viral-ness of it? Was it
science? Eh, minimally. Mostly clickbait. 12 cats. I've seen
studies done with 9 people. That's a study? Meh.
