That's much less of a problem than the fact that papers are such poor media for sharing knowledge. They are published too slowly to be immediately useful versus just a quick chat, and simultaneously written in too rushed a way to comprehensively educate people on progress in the field.
Everybody is free to keep a blog for this kind of informal chat/brainstorming kind of communication. Paper publications should be well-written, structured, thought-through results that make it worthwhile for the reader to spend their time. Anything else belongs to a blog post.
The educational and editorial quality of papers from before 1980 or so beats just about anything published today. That is what publish or perish - impact factor - smallest publishable unit culture did.
