    I’m really asking myself here: what is Elsevier doing for a living?

    Like, what value do they bring to the table at this point? Pushing submissions through a shitty chatgpt wrapper?

      They’re making money for a living.

      I don’t think “what value are we bringing to the academic publishing industry?” is something anybody there really considers. Well unless you define “value” as “shareholder profit”, at any rate.
