This is interesting:

Preprint citations twice as likely in Methods sections of papers https://fediscience.org/@OpenScienceFeed/108521560263098121

I think that being cited in Methods sections means often that stuff is actually reproducible. While in Intro/discussion too often high-impact journal papers are cited - that often enough to critisise end up being not reproducible. But keep being cited, because so many others cited.

An argument pro preprint!
