The problem with syndromes correlated with human behavior is they're vague enough they could have 4-5 causative factors. The same is true of potential causative factors in autism, sexual preferences or depression. It's even true of very acute syndromes like Parkinsons disease (or cancer). We found one direct cause of Parkinsons; fentanyl impurities -there might be 100 of these.
We want to use science to explain things, and of course, we should try, but teasing out complex causes that may have multiple components over a lifetime is extremely difficult.
