If they’re doing it intentionally, then they’re just intentionally writing badly and making me read them less.
But they do it constantly across a wide variety of topics. They write an article and provide some fact or stat but almost always fail to provide the context, or the full statistics that would make that a meaningful stat to compare. Or they provide a stat that doesn’t actually tell you anything about the question at hand.
I honestly just think that they have either crappy writers, crappy editors, or some combination of them just fundamentally lacking scientific / logical thinking skills.
