I agree, and would add lack of statistical power to the list. Underpowered studies (e.g. small effects, noisy measurement, small N) decrease the changes of finding a true effect, paradoxically increasing the risk of false positives.
It's immensely frustrating that we haven't made a lot of progress since Cohen's (1962) paper.
