Scientists have to have the truth of their malpractice rubbed hard against their face before they admit that they have a problem. Since Aristotle science has be wrought with what essentially amounts to bullshit and it only ever changes once so many people call bullshit so frequently that a new standard develops.

Not pre-publishing a research thesis / methodology is bullshit.

Not publishing data is bullshit.

Not publishing exact code (and runtime, etc) is bullshit.

Not publishing when research is complete is bullshit[0].

Not publishing is bullshit. I don't care who your funder is, it should be illegal for funders to selectively publish research. It's obviously one sided propaganda. The only time not publishing makes sense is when there are national security or global security ramifications to the research or if funding needs to be lined up for patents.

[0] I've seen a PhD candidate delayed 4 years from publishing because her supervisor was trying to coordinate a team to publish with research along the same vein all at once to make it a groundbreaking set of discoveries. It's basically p-hacking by some other name.
