Oh good grief you’re right. This is doubly sad because using an ensemble metric for per-author eigenfactor seems like it would be tractable.
Carl Bergstrom is a smart guy so I suppose the practical implementation of the above must have some wrinkles, but with enough brute force it seems tractable. What I despise more than anything is the gaming that takes place for “impact factor”.
I do OK by standard metrics but would very much like to know where I stand by less easily gamed metrics of influence.
