Is this article journalistic dramatization or do we have actual PIs in a field saying nonsense like "be careful what you wish for?" Was that taken out of context somehow? Maybe it's just the difference between physics and this field, but I'd never dare to respond to "your evidence is insufficient, and there seem to be problems with your methodology" with a statement like, "oh yeah? I'll show you evidence, be careful what you wish for." As if the ask is somehow unreasonable or unprecendented.
- thevagrant 3y agoI agree, it does seem like an arrogant response. The kind that comes from one who drinks the kool-aid. Possibly they have more evidence and findings to be published?
- kergonath 3y agoIt’s also very childish. As if not talking about something would make it not happening.

- DiogenesKynikos 3y ago"Be careful what you wish for" is a bizarre response. The reviewers asked for more evidence. The authors say they will provide more evidence. Great, that's exactly what the reviewers want. "Be careful what you wish for" implies that getting more evidence would somehow be a bad thing.
