Alright, I see what you’re saying there, and agree with the premise. I think the right way to fix it is to tell people what science means, rather than re-write all science publications.
but I disagree, by changing the wording we are implicitly teaching them what science means.
Thing is, changing the wording makes it more tedious to consume for more knowledgeable readers. It's not like we can tweak a few phrases to make it universally better with no drawbacks.
