| Feb 25, 2020 at 15:52 | comment | added | Timothy Chow | @user2520938 : I think Libli is writing in a tongue-in-cheek style. "Papers of very high quality" is a sarcastic phrase, referring to epsilonic improvements in areas of interest to the powers that be, while "interesting questions" are major conjectures on the level of the Riemann hypothesis. | |
