This is exactly my point. It seems we can't have discussions that aren't 
filled with oversimplifications, tangents, distractions, et cetera.

I keep wondering where these studies are, but we have a continuing lack of 
URLs and a continuing pining for information from Twitter, for some 
reason.

Links to data are nice! Links to studies which discuss their methods are 
nice!

I agree that we're not collaborating. I'm more than happy to examine data 
and studies that show what we're being told is not correct, or misleading, 
or whatever. It's upsetting because I just feel like people are treating 
me like a chump when they expect me to follow broken, incorrect logic and 
believe assertions without data or references.
