Well we wouldn't take away their freedom to do research; we just wouldn't participate in research carried out by people who are not willing to spend a couple hours getting to understand what OSM is about at its core! I think that would be totally legitimate on our part, and I really do believe that anyone's research about OSM is going to be better if they've just spent a couple hours mapping. (FWIW, the research that spawned this particular thread was carried out by someone with proper mapping credentials.)
