Interesting, thanks! Why do you think so (for any of them)?

Imo, pre-registration can help in two ways in this context: 1) It helps researchers involved in a particular analysis to think about theory *before* getting started. 2) It makes it easier for other researchers to spot issues with the analysis.

Theory matters. Models matter. Assumptions and assumption violations matter. Methods are not equivalent in their assumptions or statistical guarantees. We do not have the luxury of making inference in a vacuum. That's also why reproducibility/replicability doesn't mean what people think it means.
