Just because the article runs a bad experiment it doesn't mean it's conclusion is better than the critics of said experiment.
Otherwise, if I do a shitty survey and you critique it mine is better than yours because "I did something"
Every PowerPoint think tank will beat you like that.
Next time engage with a little more honesty and you might have a chance
Nobody said the conclusion is "better". Tons of academic papers contain faulty conclusions. But as long as it is not intentional fraud (which does get blurry at times), I appreciate researchers who put in honest work to reach some conclusion, based on evidence.
This article is also an example. You can disagree with their methodology, but I'll choose this article over posts with words like "more", "do", "don't" with no evidence attahched whatsoever.
