Abstract

"Articles published in high-impact scientific journals, authored by prestigious authors, based on high-quality data and with interesting and innovative conclusions, are common. These articles often spark heated discussions in the scientific community that last for years and years. However, it is not common that after about twenty years, and with ink tanks spent in defending or reproving the conclusions of the article, someone points out, as in Andersen’s tale, that the king was naked.
