    My first reaction was to agree.

    My second one is just the opposite.

    Stephen Gould writes frequently on arguments that falsify YEC. I don't
    see anyone disdaining his writings, or the publications they appear in,
    on that account.

    Like it or not, a YEC view predominates today. Ignoring it is simply
    obscurantism. It is as likely that people, seeing it is not discussed,
    will conclude it is a reputable view as think ASA antiquated by talking
    about it.
