credit is one of the easiest ways of sparking intellectual discord
Most users of softwares don't really care about who gets credit ( Who wrote
Windows Vista ,or Mac OS or Ubuntu Linux), and the NYT is a newspaper not a
journal.

Does any student, or teacher for that matter care whether Newton or Leibntiz
invented calculas.

supposed to be funny?  type citation() in r, you'll read:

"We have invested a lot of time and effort in creating R, please cite it
when using it for data analysis. See also ?citation("pkgname")? for
citing R packages."

why care whether newton or leibnitz invented calculus?  why care who has
invested a lot of time and effort in this or that?
