Why do you go through the act of arguing when we agree that scientific progress is a mix of politics and science? My first claim in great grandparent was that the argument that science on progresses when scientists die is used to argue that politics and science are equivalent, that science is reducible to politics. Since we agree that is not so reducible to politics, let us agree that we agree and move on.
