If so one should force the release of copyright papers from the publishers at gunpoint tomorrow. And make google dedicate half it's employees to indexing it

I suspect though that there are so few scientists working on most areas that the research is old or outdated across the majority of fields.

And it rather indicates a lack of fundamental tools - for example studying insect species - it's well know that there are millions of species to every insectologist(?) - yet Linnaeus classification is three centuries old - one could imagine a production line of genome mapping - put insec into machine out comes its genome - oh look that is not the species we were thinking of

The tools (mechanical) and the tools (mental) need to integrate large branches if science are what is needed - not a fear over the vast number of facts we have acquired
