Coyne is not directly challenging the PACE Trial. He is not involved in the FOI case, has never placed an FOI in relation to PACE.
.
Coyne is not a signatory to the Joint letter to the Lancet

.
.
Coyne has sought to get Plos to insist on the release of data from the later PACE Economic Analysis paper, under Plos policy, and has threatened to resign as a (one of very many) PLoS ONE Editor if Plos do not insist that the Economic Analysis paper authors release that data
.
.
So far Plos have ignored Coyne's request. That is not at all surprising because Coyne insisting that Plos 'do XYZ or Coyne will resign as an editor' is a long standing behaviour pattern of his. Coyne has done it before many times, so to PLoS it looks like Coyne is simply crying wolf.

"You really need to stop with the incessant “I’m going to resign as PLoS ONE editor” threats and whininess. Is that the only intervention you feel like you have at your disposal, and/or do you really see yourself as so important that your resignation would be such a major event? “My appeal got rejected, so I’m going to resign”. “If PLoS keeps publishing XYZ I’m going to resign”. “If PLoS doesn’t implement indexed comments I’m going to resign”. etc etc. These detract from the otherwise intelligent commenting that you provide."
