Goodness me, this is very difficult to read. This article appears to describe some serious academic fraud (highlighting issues with arxiv.org along the way) but it repeatedly buries the lede under the author's haphazard writing style.
Perhaps a TLDR at the top would be useful. Just the FAQs. The central message is too important to lose amid the stylistic missteps.
I don't want academic-adjacent writing to be anodyne, but I do want it to be clear.
