Agreed. Peer-review is essential. I do like the idea of a public peer review however, similar to that in the https://joss.theoj.org/ - I had a really pleasant experience reviewing a paper for JOSS.

I think sometimes reviewers hide behind their anonymity to give snarky responses, and using their power over you, knowing you will try your very best to implement all of their suggestions in order to publish faster. I just think the whole process should be more transparent.
