This smells distinctly like collider bias and/or selection bias and/or regression to the mean... You simply can't select teen prodigies, and world class athletes rom databases, and go run regressions without serious consideration of the selection process!

Given that the only “advantage” of this subscription was the access to the shittiest and darkest metric of all time (aka the impact factor), this feels like absolutely great news. Hopefully more will follow.
From January 1st 2026, the CNRS will cut access to one of the largest commercial bibliometric databases, Clarivate Analytics' Web of Science, along with the Core Collection and Journal Citation Reports.

Fitness influencers promote super-high-protein diets, but studies show there’s only so much the body can use.
