Yes, and the corollary is less popular: if the reasoning holds, it also holds where it produces an answer we do not like.

This is my experience too, for whatever a second data point is worth.

Coming at Dr.MetabolicMD’s question from a different direction. It helps to ask what evidence would change your mind before you look at any. If nothing would, the discussion is not about evidence, and it is better to say so early than to spend nine posts discovering it.

This is where I part company with the consensus forming above. Not convinced. The evidence being cited is consistent with the conclusion and also consistent with two other conclusions nobody has ruled out.

I would rather be corrected than agreed with, if it comes to it.
