Unfortunately this is still happening… see my post where in one week two papers were rejected after we did all the experiments asked for revision except a full animal experiment just as it was “nice to have” according to one reviewer!
Has a reviewer ever suggested you perform an extra experiment? 🧪
We’re guessing most of you will say yes.
In 2011, Hidde Ploegh dubbed these suggestions “reviewer experiments” and boldly called for an end to their “wasteful tyranny.”
