What is there to judge? The original commenter is the one making an appeal to authority, then just saying they are skeptical. In short an anonymous giving their opinion. The parent is right saying it’s of way lower value than the study.
- PKop 3y agoBecause a study lays out a more thorough and detailed argument, not because someone's real name or credentials are attached. The crux of my disagreement was his claim a name attached to an argument a priori makes it more valid than one that is anonymous. In a highly politicized environment, it can possibly be argue that a real name makes it less credible and more likely to be consensus. Putting that aside, it certainly doesn't it make it more credible.
