That's insulting. What you refer to is the behaviour of a minority of
French people who just happens by accident to have received more attention
than others. But my experience tells me that it's indeed a rare behaviour
among French scholars. And my experience also tells me that this behaviour
is just as common among scholars of other nationalities (you should see the
material I've been working on for my job. The most useless and
paper-wasting were certainly the articles by some American researchers that
I won't bother name here). It's not something coming from the language or
the nationality here.

And yes, I've met this kind of behaviour among French scholars, just like
I've met it among American, Portuguese, Polish, or Japanese scholars (to
mention just the few I've met).
