Agree that it should not be the job of reviewers to give reject/accept recommendations. I think it’s the same for questions re. novelty, impact, fitting the journal scope, etc. That should be decided by the editors! Reviewers should assess soundness.

I would plus one that. Lots of Oncotarget papers have problems. I already have over 200 Oncotarget papers flagged.
Of the 125 problematic papers that I reported 5 years or more ago, about 100 remain unaddressed.
Oncotarget's EiC thinks these images are totally fine.
