Scientific paper

It is argued in this Comment that the idea of biasing in galaxy formation is not just an ad hoc idea introduced by theorists to save the philosophically attractive Ω = 1 model when confronted with apparently conflicting evidence. A bias is essential in order to understand even the gross features of the large-scale structure of the universe, in particular the big "voids" and the superclustering of clusters, and to reconcile any of the cosmogonic scenarios under current discussion with the observed universe. Possible mechanisms which could lead to a segregation between galaxies and the actual mass distribution in the universe are reviewed.
