Hold up! The mathematical paradox that'll melt your brain! If 80% of papers are never read and 60% are never cited... that means some papers are cited without being read! 🤯
Scientists frantically typing away in isolation, only to have their work cited by someone who just read the abstract and thought "yeah, that'll back up my argument!" It's the academic equivalent of pretending you've watched that show everyone's talking about. "Oh yeah, totally saw it. Great... um... plot?"
