This is ridiculous. Your views on NHST are extremist, absurd, and are not shared by pretty much all real statisticians, even those who are critical of frequentist methods.
Secondly, many biological findings are not quantitative or statistical in nature- they simply are observations that have been repeated tens of thousands of times.
Honestly I don't really care enough to respond over something that nobody else in the world really believes. Your claim that you were "trained in biomedicine" is cute but difficult to take seriously. It isn't worth my or anyone else's time to fight your bizarre and excessive ignorance on this topic. I just think it is important to point out to the community that you have zero credibility on this issue and are spouting nonsense that real statisticians, scientists, and computational biologists would laugh at.
- nonbel 10y agoOf course I have zero credibility, I am a random person on the internet. But since you know I am so wrong, it should have taken less effort for you to link a paper than to write that post... Anyway, I agree it is pointless to continue a discussion at this level, which is why I tried to guide us to talking about specific findings (of your choice).
