Before the media blitz & retweet party get out of control, this idea exists, has been published, has a name, and a clearer justification. It is called ***Counterfactually-Augmented Data*** and here's the published paper (spotlight at #ICLR2020). https://t.co/OaWuZFXEyq https://t.co/BzGkhX7shV

That we often feel so defensive about other people's good ideas is a really big problem with incentives in academia. Our system is pretty broken.

Drop the nonsense. We did this work from May 2019, presented public results in July, posted in September you began collecting data in earnest in the autumn. Drop the posturing, so much of what you are doing here is the very cancer in the system.
