Quoting Ian Taylor in his book:

<
"The situation was no different from a university or a government
research laboratory of today.
<
"The candidate for employment first had to show evidence
of conforming to the idea of the establishment. Once
accepted, conformity was expected in order to ensure
continuation of salary and promotion.
<
"The system virtually guarantees maintenance of any theory --
regardless of whether the theory is sound or not -- held by
the man with ultimate authority.
<
"Not only that, but in a hierarchical system, promotion from within
ensures that the theory is perpetuated generation after generation."
