So you mean that you have a different thought in a given context than you have previously?
But of course, much else will have necessarily changed from previously. There are so many variables, and so much reason to suspect bias/placebo/any number of other self-deceptive influences. I just don’t think you can identify the cause as confidently as you claim (although I’ll concede some to your last sentence- that the more often this happens, the more justifiably you can attribute it to the intervention in question).
And as for the burden of proof- you not only made a claim, you used the word ‘definitely’. Why wouldn’t you have to support that claim? I feel like the whole concept of ‘burden of proof’ has become very counter-productive in internet discourse. Time spent arguing about who has the burden of proof would be much better spent on making arguments for our respective positions.
