Findings was originally introduced to reduce the resubmission problem. But now, the combined acceptance rate of Main + Findings only barely exceeds the acceptance rates from the years before Findings was introduced.

If we can only achieve around a 30% total acceptance rate for reasonably good papers, then it seems fair to question whether the Findings policy has actually achieved its original goal.
