This would be a really great paper if I had the space to write it.

As it is, I just keep writing and scaling back, writing and scaling back, writing and scaling back and scaling out references to the theory that need to be there. Because there's only so much room in the paper.

When did 3400 words - the longest paper I have ever written - become so few?

Not having enough room to say all you want to is so frustrating. I will always remember that Marie Antoinette paper I wrote which could easily have been twice the size it ended up as.
