Fair point!
However I’m used to seeing just that criticism lobbed at me and others here who are not calling you and others deluded idiots. I believe I’ve seen you impute this to my posts before as well.
So taking “the naysayers” to include me and some others who are skeptical didn’t seem like a stretch.
Of course if you point only to those who have said such things you aren’t referring to a straw man. Problem is the accuracy of that claim can’t be taken for granted given how often I, and other skeptics here, have routinely been misrepresented and strawnanned. I say something like “how did you determine it was a real effect vs imagined” and as is often seen here I get back something like “so you take me to be a deluded idiot??!!”
