I agree with your point that, in science, data interpretation is most important (Watson and Crick's great discovery was an interpretation of others' data). That said, however, open science allows a greater number of people to participate in that interpretative process (some think Linus Pauling may have beaten Watson and Crick to their discovery, if he'd seen the data).</p><p>p.s.
