@e9fa40a2 @7f5dfb68 @5f9be9ad Frankly, since I see hundreds of aspiring scientists send papers to my journal, hoping for some form of solidarity from their peers (called "review"), I do not see this diagram as particularly helpful. Sometimes we do things because others need us to do them. 

 @4fbb756c @7f5dfb68 @5f9be9ad I fully agree this decision tree is a bit selfish. Review is clearly an issue in this flow chart, but that's another debate (related to incremental papers, etc...).
