The fact that you supposedly read the article and, instead of engaging with any of the statistics or actual information presented in it to offer a rebuttal, immediately went for sarcasm and ad hominem against the author supports his opinion a hell of a lot more than yours. It also speaks volumes about one of the points the author makes early on - contrarian opinions, regardless of veracity, get attacked by people like you out of hand. This is not the level of comment that belongs on HN.
