Many academic papers could be half as long—or less. But we write them to be self-contained and accessible to a broad scholarly audience, so we repeat background, define well-known terms, pad the argument just to be safe. And then publishers restrict the number of footnotes.
In an ideal world, a paper would be short, dense, even cryptic—and followed by a massive apparatus of notes explaining context, terminology, prior work, alternatives. Instead, we do the opposite: long main text, minimal notes

Times Higher Education reports on Donya Ahmadi, whose article on MeToo in Iran in Elsevier's Women’s Studies International Forum is under investigation by the publisher for naming a now-UK-based researcher alleged to be “a serial abuser accused of at least three counts of prolonged sexual and psychological abuse”.

It's wonderful to see the #academic community developing here.
