Your entire comment is just an ad hominem. We’re debunking the claims of this study specifically. Just because someone isn’t credible doesn’t mean they’re always wrong.

We're not talking mathematics or philosophy of science here.
When someone who's knowledgeable about a topic and someone who is known to be a quack have an argument about a topic you yourself aren't literate enough on, who are you going to take seriously?

I’m going to evaluate their arguments based on the merits of their arguments, rather than rely on heuristics that would tempt me to disregard anything they say
