I think what your parent meant was that, instead of just asserting that something is true, you provide some peer reviewed research or something like that which supports your assertion. For example, you might want to include a link to some article pointing to research which supports your assertion. For example, you can add something like https://hbr.org/2022/12/what-companies-still-get-wrong-about-layoffs https://hbr.org/2022/12/what-companies-still-get-wrong-about... to your comment. Of course, this link points to two decades of research showing that your assertion is wrong, so you probably don't want to include this specific link in your comment, but you get the idea I hope.
