I was originally going to list examples of bad industry-focused science in the original post, but decided against it, since I didn&#x27;t want to offend anyone. Your username is &quot;gradstudent&quot;, suggesting you have read a few papers. My bet is that you&#x27;ve read papers where you scratch your head and say, &quot;is that really how things work?&quot; I read lots and lots of those papers - usually they don&#x27;t end up getting published.
