Maybe the reason the phenomenon is hard to account for, is because it's not real. Things that don't exist are difficult to explain.
Maybe we shouldn't spend so much energy trying to find causes when we're not even sure there's an effect. TFA argues, in essence, that metastudies point to severe inconsistencies and are ultimately inconclusive, and I agree with it.
(Also: "armchair analyst" is involuntary funny, because most analysts, unlike generals (or maybe like most generals?) work at a desk.)
