Sure, but things that make narrative sense can easily fall down when examined - that's why the statistics are important and not just a rubber stamp. See for example https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regression_toward_the_mean
No disagreement here, but equally you can't be surprised when people can grapple with the narrative easier than statistics. If you want the statistical understanding to propagate you need a narrative.
