Yeah I have seen this. Itโ€™s 100 dollars probably well spent but I donโ€™t think anyone would pay for it

Depends on the journal, but given that exceptions to the data policy must be sought upon initial submission, that is the point to also supply IRB etc. referees clearly need to see this. this is not official policy but best practice. This story is another great data point in my repertoire.

A lot? Well, if preparing a referee report takes x hours, spending 5% of x hours on that sort of stuff seems time well spent. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Is it true that this got an R&R at QJE? How come they did not ask for IRB and other supporting documentation?

of course. that's just a simple example, not a realistic work load. we never get that kind of linear speed increase with realistic overheads.
