Does reading a dozen papers on different algorithms to accomplish a specific goal count as scavenging. Asking for me because I've gone down a rabbit hole with recent work. Not trying to be antagonistic or humble brag either. Actually not sure what I'm trying to accomplish with this question.

I think most papers should effectively just be scavenged through. In (mathematics) grad school I’ve only had time to seriously study a single digit number of research papers, but I at least feel like I gained a lot from looking through many many more than that.
