A modern paper

It feels ridiculous to see a 5-page paper with a 150-page appendix. Makes you question what is the paper.

I dunno, I kinda like the "breadth first" approach: abstract should basically tell you most of what you need, at a 30,000' level, but maybe not convice you. Main text should convince you. Appendix should tell you how to perform the experiment yourself.
- I’m with you on that. My comment was more like sometimes the appendices seem to get out of hand. They probably contain entire papers there.
