Are you critising the man in the article ( John Ioannidis ) for egotism because he somehow is disparaging of Further ( Meta ) analysis of his results ?
Or are you saying that Ioannidis has a point and that studies of studies are poor ?
I read SSC, and like it, but an editor would improve him. I think his superfans are very entertained by his lame jokes, and like his particular voice, so extra length is more of what they want, even if it doesn't contain much new information. For me, its OK, but if the essays could be 20% shorter with the about the same content, it would bump him up in my list.
I haven't read much SSC, but something tells me I'd like his lame jokes.
