    Help! me guess how to translate the headline. People decorate their papers with quotes from the song lyrics. And the article decorated that with words from scientific research like “permeate”, maybe “meta”, could find “tertiary research” in here? Fun!

      I can't tell what you're asking. It sounds like you're asking why they used the word "permeate" in the headline, but you don't explain what the implication is - why are you confused about it? And then you make some kind of joke, I think, about the theoretical use of other, seemingly unrelated words. I don't follow.

        It’s a smartphone comment with a lot of layers, a glass onion if you will.

            I’m so tired of these silly love song references.
