Everyone is free to ignore this gift horse, with or without making silly defensive noises. The latter, though, would have been a totally fantastic taste.

But I wouldn't want anyone to think that, get turned off, and not read the paper. So I revised the abstract to reflect our findings. SSRN does not currently reflect the change (unfortunately) but hopefully should do so in the next few days. If you have issues with the form of additional SSRN papers, I would suggest that you should write to the author (off-blog) with your thoughts and comments. SSRN lists email addresses, I believe, for this very purpose. And, that, I submit, would be in extremely good taste. Definitely not meant as a gimmick.

Surely you exaggerate. If not, who are these people with such sensitive palates? “Extremely bad taste”? Surely you exaggerate. If not, who are these people with such sensitive palates?

Abstracts that contain nothing but research puzzles (or vague suggestions “we have an answer, but we won’t tell you what it is; you’ll have to read the whole paper”) are considered cheap gimmicks.
