I think it is the other way around honestly. Ian took a sip of his wine thinking it over. In science a good portion of the people believe they are right and that their method is superior. The challenge more often comes from people who want other people to think they are more correct than you are. Fame allows for more protection against other people messing with your position. Bad press is still good press only applies to fame not respect in science or as an academic.
