> One other thing. If the author cut corners because he's too sick to write, but did so anyway because he thought his job would be in jeopardy if he didn't publish, maybe it's time for some self-reflection at Ars regarding the work culture and sick leave/time-off policies.

It sounds like you're implying that's what happened here, but I don't see any of that in the article. Was additional info shared elsewhere?

Edit: oh, I see links to the article author's social media saying this. Nevermind my question, and I agree.
