So, spend half an hour on it on the off chance it's not junk, in a field that is rife with politicised and inflammatory hot takes. That's a hard sell, frankly.

So, spend half an hour on it on the off chance it's not junk, in a field that is rife with politicised and inflammatory hot takes. That's a hard sell, frankly. I'll get back to you if I get the time.
I would not entirely dismiss as "appeal to authority" any filtering on such a field, that is so full of bad faith takes and misinformation. There's no shortage of that at all. And frankly, focusing on it as a pressing issue now, which it wasn't e.g. 10 years ago, is itself a culture-war distraction from more real things.

But if you are, I fully expect you to also pore over what came out in it wake (I'm, replying now when it's in) https://skepchick.org/2023/05/physicist-sabine-hossenfelder-screws-up-on-trans-kids-care/ https://skepchick.org/2023/05/physicist-sabine-hossenfelder-... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6Kau7bO3Fw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6Kau7bO3Fw
