    This is not a big pile, these are only 8 peer-reviewed papers. This is a tiny snack on a coffee-cup plate.

    I read many papers every day, and I intentionally posted some that don’t 100% back up what I said so you can have more nuance.

      You intentionally made the first one disagree with your argument to add nuance.

      Thank you, I will be laughing about this for years to come.

        Oh, I doubt that you’ll be laughing. Tell me, how do you think avoiding confirmation biases and sampling biases looks like?
