Yeah I have no idea how it got to -2, but maybe it was my tone. I was even trying to not call out any specific post or debate any single issue.

The thing about academia is it's full of people who love talking about ways to make it better, and rotate into positions of power where they can change things after a few years.

The solutions are complex, require convincing many different stakeholders (even if they're amenable to the change), nailing lots of detail to make it work right. Because peoples lives and careers are on the line. Reputations of entire fields, the way medical discoveries happen, billions of dollars of taxpayer money, major institutions, etc. are not things you want to hack and discover that whoops, you just incentivized the wrong thing and set back cancer research for a decade.
