  When a scientific paper has one of those titles I assume it is bullshit until proven otherwise. I can not trust a paper that does not even trust itself to stand on its own merits.

  I agree.

  Except for the “this paper will be sad if you don’t read it” one, that one’s on point.

    I mean, we’re not talking about mutually exclusive properties.

    Whether a paper is more or less dry and whether it’s more or less accessible to newcomers is separate from the quality of the contribution.

    You can have both.
