Study finds that we could lose science if publishers go bankrupt

What a ridiculous premise, and quite self serving.

Anyone can upload a PDF (or even other formats that are libre!) to the internet, and a group of other people can then go peer review that document. Scientific method and peer review are science, not Springer.

Seems like all this should be stored in various national libraries and archives where ever the publisher is incorporate or where the university/institution or author residences.

A better headline would be:

"Scientific journals don't use enough redundancy in storing inaccessible articles and papers"

Science is NOT a religion, it does NOT have sacred texts.

“most of the unarchived issues stem from smaller publishers”
