Statisticians want to abandon science’s standard measure of ‘significance’
The problem isn't p-values, the problem is a binary distinction between p=0.049 and p=0.051. The problem would go away if everyone understood p-values, or we replaced use of the term "statistically significant" with "3% probability we're just seeing a pattern by accident". Renaming the term to something that sounds just as binary isn't any different.
