Meanwhile Nature is bombarding us with all these models that can predict what diseases we will have in the next few decades. Even branding it the "oracle of health".

Lack of evidence. Bring proof to the table.
Why would I assume corporate level fraud for something that can be organised by a few individuals?

Who will pay for this investigation? Is this a political priority? Across jurisdictions and Ukraine is a little busy.
We see many countries cracking down on buyers, but sellers will be hard to catch.

Articles are the crack of academia. As long as you have sufficient desperate buyers, an organisation will form to produce.

From a buyer's perspective, individual demand is for sure clear and sufficient.
We know certain universities have bought scientists with dubious records for their h index before. Wholesale selling of articles is hard to prove and imo not even required.

What do you define as sufficient profit? It doesn't take too much funds to operate a paper mill. The profit margin is often 100s of dollars. In many countries, this gets you very far.
There are 10.000s of academics in publish or perish conditions. Big market, low effort, big margins.

PhD students? The most egregious examples of citation and paper fraud are professors with the funds and time to do so. A PhD student has a much harder time getting away with this.
