    I worked in science, and in this case, this is looks disingenuous and manipulative.

    But sometimes there are honest “mistakes” (just a result of using P values). Sometimes I find a very interesting result that has the potential to change a lot of things, but it fails to be replicated.

    Usually they are forgotten. and then there’s the whole Alpha male bullshit we’re still dealing with.
