   Four is reasonably common now, with one extra if it's a close call. Editors are too busy to read the papers themselves. It all seems rather inefficient.

   The reports could be fairly long. So is it really more efficient for the editor to read multiple reports than the paper itself?

    I'd say 3 is modal and 4 is more common than 2. 5 is absurd but does happen occasionally.

    ReStud is a 2nd tier general interest, albeit the best of them, but it’s not a top journal

    If you're LRM, the editor will pick more referees until a referee recommends reject.

    If you're HRM, the editor will pick more referees until a referee recommends r&r.

    I'd argue that the median ReStud paper is better than the median QJE or AER paper.
