  • To be fair, ‘scientific studies’ are increasingly less reliable, so quoting them as ‘facts’ has less weight. It used to be that any average person could look at an abstract and have a good enough idea to accept what the study found as fact. In 2025 this is less so, because you can’t just read the abstract. You also need to read the methodology and ideally who financed the study, since half the studies published are manipulated.

    Not that it makes a great difference, but still.
