Not sure whether that is a good run or not really. Its not too bad on the ones where I had control but there’s an argument I should have pushed harder on the others. And like anyone, if Nature asks you for a piece you don’t readily turn them down. So 6/12 in the last few years more or less “proper” OA.

Definitely advocate OA. I like the notion of “open science” (whatever that is), I don’t know if I “advocate” it.
