I came up with what I think is good explanation for what is happening.

1. People are paid to find topics to publish. Whether you are a media person that is forced to find something to write about to buy bread or you are a researcher that needs to show results. You are looking for anything with any value that can be put out there and create some traffic.

2. For any piece of research, you don't get from zero to hero immediately. You first find a correlation, then it takes time to gather some more facts and maybe, if you are lucky, find causation.

Nowadays, if you are waiting for the whole proof, you are already late. Somebody will publish it before you and by the time it really is ready to publish, it is old news.
