      Taking credit for the work of people who are barely even credited in the first place is… a way of responding. If only she had disappeared behind the curtain for a moment, re-emerging with everyone there with big hair and guitars and eye shadow and screamed “we are McCarty and the Et Als!!!”

      Oh well; next time.

        She drew attention to her being the/an author of the paper rather than just being a naming coincidence (or family relation, etc).

        Adding the et al was likely for that effect, rather than an attempt to take credit for other authors’ work, imo

      Common misunderstanding - her full name is “Jessica McCarty Et Al”

      from SMBC comics, 4 panels.
Narrator: I realized something.
Man, at home, to himself: Wait: Scientists no longer know any Latin
Narrator: This presented an opportunity for a first mover
Man, at an office: Hi, I'd like to get my name changed
Narrator: the means were not entirely honorable
Man, giving talk: Hello, ladies and gentlemen
Narrator: But I am now the most cited researcher in history
Man: My name is - "Et Al"
Audience gasps

          Yeah, Papa Et Al registered Et Al as his family name, and combined names when he got married

      “Et al” is a pretty funny honorific though

      She’s so prolific, one mere mortal body is insufficient for her bamfness.
