@ChrisMayLA6 to add insult to injury, empirical articles are not fit to purpose: they are insufficient to effective use of the scientific information they purport to contain. And no, citation is not use. Neither is guessing or reading between the lines.
A reminder of the purpose: contribution to a usable, comprehensible and reliable scientific record.
