but I know that there is at least one where the odds of a letter to Nature being accurate a few years later is about 50%.

...

you know, there is a difference between "getting published in Nature" and "submitting your work to Nature". It's subtle, perhaps: one involves being published in the journal. For the world to see and scrutinize.

I bet they get lots of letters that they do, indeed, find aren't well substantiated enough to publish.

Also, one field. Lmao.

Also, please tell me why you made your first comment, I'm genuinely curious. Did you read about this somewhere? Where, if you recall?
