I agree my point would have been better served attacking the message, not the messenger.
I think there are few things less curious and less scientific than objecting to seeing mystery in the physical world.
I dont think it is hyperbolic or fearmongering to use mystery in conjunction is science.
For example, when describing a never before observed proton radiation belt, with unexplained duration. Or when most of that radiation belt is still uncharacterized and out of the detection range of instruments. Or when this never before seen proton belt is expected to last very long time, perhaps over a year, form a single transient storm [1].
I dont think it is appropriate to editorialize the titles of submission links to strip out authorial intent to highlight and share this mystery.
That said, The above text would have made a more robust critique that is more in-line with the sight guidelines. I just got fired up reading how much people hate scientists for their passion[2] and their application causal reductionism
