Well, looking at the number of heavily funded, widely publicized studies that settled issues like this for good, I’d be forced to conclude either… (a) these studies don’t exist because no one is funding them or (b) the studies exist and everyone is ignoring them. That I haven’t heard of any such study seems like fairly strong Bayesian evidence that, yeah, Manfred is right.
