I'm in computer science

Ah, of course. I was too busy thinking about results in the vein of "Slightly tweaking the pretraining step for insert trendy architecture allowed us to beat SOTA on SQuAD by 0.7%" that I kinda forgot about how many (possibly more applications-y) papers would actually be of interest to the general public.

Tho, I can't imagine it being too interesting to tell someone with an ego as big as mine that I'm wrong. Thx

I was eager to defend myself largely because you've made me think about whether I'm inadvertently being exclusionary in the context of my own academic writing (which really is something I should think about), so it's not like I'm not also a big-ego-haver.
