This PR is helpful in that it reminds me that there are actually people paid to take a simple set of information and mix in with a ton of PR bullshit so that you have to read it 4 times before you actually understand that yes, they screw up.

reviewers are not paid by the publisher in the current system either

basically:

  - authors pay to publish their work
  - readers pay to read the articles
  - reviewers review pro-bono
now you are thinking "well where the hell goes the money" and you are in the same situation as 99% of scientists

When I meet such people in meetups, all I hear is "I am the next Zuckerberg but I have no idea how things work. Where do I find someone to do the work for me?"
