The paper "How proper are Bayesian models in the astronomical literature?" [arXiv:1712.03549] by Tak, Ghosh and Ellis is improper

Abstract

In their "How proper are Bayesian models in the astronomical literature?" [arXiv:1712.03549], Hyungsuk Tak, Sujit K. Ghosh and Justin A. Ellis criticised my work with false statements. This is an infamous case of straw man fallacy. They give the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while they refute an argument that was not presented.
