This is also what drives like 90% of scientific research.
Many see a study published and think: ." No, I don’t think that’s how it works. I’m going to do my own study and prove them wrong. "
Scientists are all just petty know-it-alls.
Pettiness can be used productively. There is a right place for every type of person. 🙃

The study I read said that only about 37% of scientists are petty know-it-alls, 60% are waiting for funding, 2% are waiting on peer review, and 1% are actively doing research.
They then said there was a 82% margin of error and a bunch of overlap in the groups, so you probably shouldn’t cite their research even though they published it.
