Probably not, but we (and many scientists) know about it anyway.

Do scientists want us to know about the misuse of p values in their research papers?

Yes. You think the average scientist wants to be wasting their time creating catch-all experiments in order to get published so they can secure more grants? Of course not, they want to follow their curiosity to answer big questions or fail to get the answers but answer other questions. This model wastes everyone’s time for extremely small gains. But it’s all about stakeholder’s investments.
