Also, note that Scientific Reports has no requirements for a paper to be super-novel&#x2F;cool&#x2F;hot topic, in contrast to the actual Nature journal. Anything which is decent science will get published in SRep; it&#x27;s NPG&#x27;s version of PLOS One.<p>It seems Nature&#x27;s strategy is working here, since many news outlets and the general public don&#x27;t seem to be aware of the difference.
