On your second point, a few years ago the SOTA was Google's Deep Dream.
I agree with your deeper criticism, though preferential attachment/ranking is very much How Humans Do Things. You could do a much improved citation system by expanding the time dimension and looking at papers that were unpopular at first and then attracted wide interest later.
Of course, academics also have a tendency to over-cite (because they don't want to be rejected for inadequate literature review), so there are incentives to cite a bunch of research whose premises or conclusions you hope to overturn.
