That’s not true at all. Papers come from industry all the time. I know of independent researchers who make up an LLC name and use that as their affiliation.

Most people who publish in journals are affiliated with academia simply because that’s where the vast majority of basic research happens.

I've published a couple of papers in decent pure math journals with no affiliation at all. It didn't cause any issues.

I studied medieval history. It was common in the 2000s for significant work to be done by “unaffiliated scholars.”
