The Elsevier reply is infuriating. The system is broken.

That’s not a reply, it’s sarcasm by the same poster pretending to speak for the publisher as a joke.
What part of the reply is not factually correct? (premium gold+ open access article for $50000?)
I didn’t say it wasn’t factually correct. I assumed it was mostly correct, perhaps a bit sensationalist for comedic purposes. I found it quite funny actually. My answer above was just that it was not actually written by the Elsevier company like that user seems to have thought.
Some people look best in the warm glow of their own pyre.
Um......
