Abuse of Umbral Calculus Framework

The umbral calculus framework, formalized in the 1970s, has been misused in recent papers to create superficially new polynomial sequences by adding parameters and re-deriving known identities. This has led to a flood of low-quality papers with misleading names. The issue arises from the lack of genuine application of classical umbral calculus ideas.
