> and this means the amount of actual typesetting/formatting done by journals can only be minimal compared to in other domains This doesn't follow logically, and even though I don't know how it is in other domains, I know for a fact that the amount of typesetting done for a typical CS journal is non-trivial. > So journal requirements here are usually harmful and generally 20+ years outdated. I see you have very strong opinions already formed - I don't expect to be able to change them. | ||||||||
