Yeah I should have clarified that I knew you’re not a native speaker and understand why that motivates your argument, but the harm of being exclusionary stems in part because not every reader will know that. (Though I think even if every reader did know that you were a non-native speaker, it still does create a negative effect (via this exclusionary channel) albeit a smaller one).
Also I didn’t take your claim to be “investigations should not only take place in cases where their results will be made public.” (Which seems to be the implication of your reply above but maybe I’m misunderstanding). I don’t think “public exposes are useful” implies that you need to necessarily conduct the work needed for a public expose in cases where you suspect wrongdoing.
Should also say as your friend that I recognize it sucks to be criticized especially when it feels like a group pile-on, and I appreciate your making controversial claims even if I don’t agree with them.

For the record, I consider being a non-native speaker exculpatory evidence. I’d much rather exclude native speakers with poor[1] reading comprehension than non-native speakers.

I agree it’s not a necessary result, but I think it has a strong directional effect. At the very least people will feel encouraged to make their results public, a situation where they’re likely to already systematically underestimate the costs (though tbf maybe some of the benefits as well).

I appreciate the sympathy! I was worried a while ago that I cared more about being liked than being right, so I’m at least glad to get some contrary evidence here.
