The paper finds:

- For LLM-assisted output, the more complex the LLM-writing is, the less likely the paper is to be published. From eyeballing, at WC=-30, both have similar chances of publication (~46%). At the upper range of WC=25, LLM-assisted papers are ~17% less likely to be published.

- LLM-assisted authors produced more preprints (+36%).

I wonder:

- What is the distribution of writing complexity?

  * Does the 17% publication deficit at WC=25 correspond to 17% of the 36% excess LLM-assisted papers being WC=25, thus nullifying the effect? Although, it puts extra strain on the review process.
