Would it? Or would it be treated as an errant experiment by either the journal or the experimentalists themselves, foregoing publishing until they had a result that was better aligned with established norms? Rightly or wrongly, I expect that stakeholders would tend to invoke Sagan’s ECREE over the course of the publication process.

Yes. Yes, it would. This is so tiring.

It is not my intention to induce fatigue in anyone, though I am impressed that a reply comment in a forum is capable of doing so.

I hope you manage to get some rest after the tiring tribulations people pose on forums.
