Is research misconduct becoming unstoppable?

This is with reference to the endemic problem of research misconduct in even notable universities and is in response to Shubhada Nagarkar's 'Research paper mills': A factory outlet for dubious research [1]. Despite such articles routinely appearing in prestigious journals, the problem seems unfixable due to the structure of the modern university with its fixation on research metrics, rather than, say, social mobility, student life and exposure, mitigating social disharmony and so on, which were part of the original mandate of the idea of the university.
