Why not link to the original article that piece quotes https://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/chimeric-monkey-china-birth-cell-b2445058.html

I link to articles I’ve actually read. I didn’t read that one because I read this one, so I didn’t link to it. That’s why.

Fair enough. The original is a bit more informative than the re-write, I think.

I would love a cultural norm of always posting the actual study alongside write-ups
