I don’t mind this. Science is transnational, the goal is to help solve the world’s problems. I don’t care where the solutions come from, or who is inspired and creative enough to have a good idea. Any meaningful discovery creates new industries everywhere else.

Besides, the folks doing this study are measuring scientific advancement by the number of papers published, not new industries or patents.
