Let me recount quickly so we can compare:
-5 for starters.
+3 for statements widely agreed to be false (nonexistence of 1. black holes, 2. dark matter, 3. big bang).
+10 for claiming a paradigm shift.
+20 for talking about how great the theory is without explaining it.
+40 for claiming something like a conspiracy suppressing the new idea (cf. “threatening to their funding and careers”).
However, it seems like misspelling ‘Kuhn’ should count for something.
Step 8 suggests a +5 for misspelling Einstein, Hawking, or Feynman—you could do the same for Kuhn.
