>Publishing by itself does little to advance science
I strongly disagree. Publishing advances science the same way communication advances culture. Imagine Einstein didn't published any of his work. How many decades back in technology and quality of life we'd have been now?
It's like any evolutionary beneficial trait gets transferred to all population in one generation instead of many. It saves precious time.
