Nowadays there is an increasing debate among the researcher around the globe regarding the significant p-value in the statistical testing. They are in the conclusion that instead of p-value we can choose point and interval estimate ( OR, RR & CI) whether it is significant or not.

I have recently read an article in Nature. which conclude that scientific inference is more important than statistical inference then what is the importance of statistical testing in the research if it cannot conclude what is the reality? If it just roaming around only old established scientific relationship? Is it the failure of statistics? What would be the way forward for the researchers to consider the proper statistical test?

The link of an article which I read in Nature is here
