:) me too!
This also raises the question of imposing the reviewer or editor's views
in order to publish: authors may not agree with the reviewers but in
traditional journals have no choice but to accept their opinion or risk
non-publication (btw there was a paper written by a swiss economist a
few years ago along those lines: "Academic publishing as a form of
prostitution", or something).
I would imagine that we have a somewhat more collegial way of dealing with
authors.
Finally: do you then disapprove also of reader ratings?
No, not at all, but I would keep it really simple. Otherwise it won't be
used.
