Publishing cost today is smaller -- yet publishers actually charge more.

Libraries used to get a physical copy of the papers, which would grant lifetime access to the research.

Today, they pay for subscription, and as soon as they stop paying, they lose access to everything.

Can we download only single articles, or can we download the whole 40M+ collection?

I’d prefer to have a simple JSON configuration file... followed by a pile of unnecessary complexity in the form of new semantics on how to declare and tie things together.

I highly doubt that this is making author's developers life easier.

More likely, it's just an over-engineering indulgence, that happens to make one's job more secure.

There's usually a provision on super-voting shares that automatically convert them to common shares upon transfer.

So, in an event where Mark passes away, decides to sell, etc, then the rest of the shares will have more voting power, relatively.
