Even for research, a lot of CS papers seem like cosplay.

In the place of hard math, models, proofs, quantitative analysis of past approaches, etc. there is simply an “Architecture” section with much navel gazing. The paper topic is not a formal analysis but merely a description of a thing that was made.

Ironically, the least important part of an engineering research paper is the part describing the thing actually built/simulated. That is merely validation of the theory.
