I am sure there are exceptions. I know many who BELIEVE they are real scientists (they have built their entire identity on it) while refusing to acknowledge the replication crisis, & refusing to acknolwledge any data that would require them to question any popular dogma (vaccines, climate, nutrition, inflation, etc). Someone asking them the wrong question either causes them to lash out or to have some other sort of emotional fit. I have literally had professors tell me they didn't want to learn anything new, which in a sane world should be an immediate disqualification from their job. In general they seem more concerned with social status than with understanding the world. Universities look to me to be filled with some of the worst people on the planet.
