That's fair but that's the systemic view of the issue. When you are in the trenches you can't look at the good and throw away the bad. You have to compare your work to the fraudulent work, spend a lot of time reading and trying to reproduce the fraudulent work, cite the fraudulent work, compete with the fraudulent work, publish as fast they do, with results better than they produce. And even the work that's not fraudulent but just bad or rushed.
It's a race to the bottom, and how can we ask that people compromise the quality of their work to compete when the only motivation for doing this work is the love of the craft. It's certainly not the money, or the environment, or the work-life balance, or the prestige.
