Researcher proposes strict ICLR reforms: 3-paper cap, 10-page limit, reproducibility required

A researcher proposes a strict reform package for ICLR, arguing it's the only way to preserve the conference's sanity:
- Hard cap of 3 papers per author
- Strict 10-page limit, pushing back on labs' 20-30 page papers
- Reproducible papers only—no-code or restricted-material submissions rejected; blogs/arXiv remain options
- LLMs may assist but never be authors—"gibberish LLM prose is useless anyway"
- Quality over quantity, even at the cost of tougher reviews and lower acceptance rates
