You are suggesting that the author - or anyone asociated with the Journal - had a single thought regarding the "rocks in a jar." They did not evaluate anything. Obviously, they cut and pasted some paragraphs from Wikipedia. Just some old men sitting around at the end of their careers, giggling.
That is not science. It's stupidity.

I think you will find they did evaluate what a jar in the corner of a room would do to the sound field. This does not involve lots of hard sums or complicated experiments but a brief flash of thought based around the laws of acoustics and experience of where the wrinkles may lie.
> Obviously, they cut and pasted some paragraphs from Wikipedia.
No sane person uses wikipedia as the source of anything that is important. Certainly not someone writing an academic paper even a lighthearted one.
> Just some old men sitting around at the end of their careers, giggling.
The author of your paper is young. I suspect it may be a requirement for mustering the effort for that sort of thing.

Does that mean I get the last word?
That is quite an assumption on your part that any thought was given to the jar of rocks. What proof do you have? "A brief flash of thought" -- that is so funny! Is that what you think science is? What they were probably having was hot flashes. LOL

A knowledge of how my peers think. Is that proof?

When it comes to jars of rocks in the corner of the room brief is about the limit.
Do not seem to have had the last word. Need to hang on a bit longer?
Not really. You are perhaps the peer of the author of the article, but you are not my peer. I will leave you to your flashes of thought or hot flashes, as the case may be.
