>It's very easy to say "meh, you haven't done a scientific test so it's probably placebo", but remember that you're being equally un-scientific in such an analyse. No, dismissing unblinded observations of phenomena the perceptions of which are notoriously suggestible (like UI responsiveness) is not "equally un-scientific" as making unblinded observations of phenomena the perceptions of which are notoriously suggestible. Pointing out that such observations is unreliable is, in fact, a simple application of science. Grandstanding tu quoque arguments are not.
