Kind reminder: data driven variable selection (e.g. forward/stepwise/univariable screening) makes things *worse* for most analytical goals

Question for my academic colleagues- has a journal ever reached out with a PDF of your article published online ahead of print and asked you to reformat parts of your table they already approved during the proof process? #science
