Oh dear. You really have no idea what we are talking about.
Here, I’ll try help you using a simple analogy.
Imagine Doug Axe is very upset about all the reports that 40% of Americans are obese. He thinks this is just some woke propaganda to make Americans feel bad about themselves. So he decides to do his own experiment.
Obesity is typically defined as a BMI of over 30. But, unfortunately for Axe, the Biologic Institute does not have the budget for fancy equipment like bathroom scales and tape measures. So he decides to use his own method to define obesity.
He invites 100 Americans to his lab and has each of them stand on a wooden crate. If the crate is crushed, then the person is defined as “obese.”
He runs the experiment and finds the crates collapses only 5 times. From this, he concludes that the obesity rate in America is only 5%.
Questions:
Did his method “lower the threshold” for the detection of obesity? i.e. Did he make it more likely that an obese person would be detected, compared to if he had measured their BMI?
Is his conclusion sound? Has he actually demonstrated that the obesity rate in America is only 5%, and not 40%?
Well, aside from the fact that, as we have seen, your “response” is based on your utter incomprehension of the subject at hand, we are also debating whether Axe himself has ever responded to Art’s objections raised in the 2018 post. It seems you have now finally accepted that he never has. Correct?
