Instead of “is there causality?” we should ask “how much causality is there?”.
The closest analogy to the old question would be “is there enough causality (for my purpose)?”. If drinking water improves my mood by 0.0001%, then drinking water is not a cost-effective way to improve my mood.
I am not denying that there is a connection, I am just saying it does not make sense for me to act on it.
