      I dunno, sounds reasonable to me. Just like when recent studies by independent groups of experts on fintech enthusiasts found that investing in cryptocurrency was correlated with up to 70% increased body odor, a statistically significant drop in attractiveness and between one and three standard deviations below baseline level of self awareness.

      The independent group consisted of me. The papers are available if you pay me 350€ for a yearly subscription to my journal.
