- db48x 9y agoEven common sense needs to be studied; some of it occasionally turns out to be wrong.
- ouid 9y agoIf this paper had implied that common sense was wrong here, would you have trusted it?

- db48x 9y agoI don't particularly trust this study; I haven't even read it. I'm just saying that you can't skip studying something just because it seems like common sense.
- marcosdumay 9y agoIn the absence of any other study, only if it is safe. But a non common sense result would lead to more studies, that would either confirm or disprove it. That larger body of studies would very likely be trustworthy.
