that is obvious, however one must wonder what is means when 14 pages of a paper are simply credit names...

I was never fond of the "Hollywood credit list", and it seems like this culture entered our trade.

If a paper is about

   Advanced Reasoning
   Multimodality
   Long Context
   Next Generation Agentic Capabilities

then perhaps we should limit the "authors" to those who contributed directly to the topic.

I am convinced a large amount of those in the list are from DevOps, DevEx and DevRel (let alone "Digital" and "Product")
