Is this some kind of meta-psychological experiment? At least let's hope it is...

Maybe it's a clever way to find out political bias in academy. Write two papers claiming that one or the other side of the political spectrum is scientifically linked to insanity, submit both papers to random journals, and see which version becomes the official academic "truth".

Just kidding, but it would be an awesome experiment.
