Because people are not so interested in reinventing the wheel a thousand times when there could be just 3 optimal open source solutions.

Also many products are plain useless or even harmful to society such as mundane noneducational distracting addictive mobile games.

If you can glance over 100 posts in 10 seconds that is of little importance. The issue is that nobody enabled good ways to do so. Also people should rather devote their times to priority purposes such as editing Wikipedia or developing open source software that is not some niche repo but e.g. MediaWiki or Lutris.

It's destined for a another study by independent researchers. As simple as that. Also more than one and substantially larger ones would be good given the simplicity, more or less innocuous study design, and the potential benefits. Maybe people assume that if a study says something, you're supposed to immediately take that as the truth. That is never the case. This study is just a very clear case for more good studies on this.

Everything that sounds strange or like what people often call sham-science or funded by some people I don't like must be pseudoscience and I don't provide any reasons but only name-call

Loeb is based and people who think UFOs or potential interstellar material readily retrievable at the seabed shouldn't be studied is out of his/her mind.

Here is some info on the few studies conducted on UAP so far. NASA is starting research on them as well but likely won't bring nearly as much as Garry Nolan's study of materials did or the Galileo Project will. I have good faith in this community, I think most people aren't so narrow-minded ignorant.

Here are some correlations of language skills and other intelligence factors or evaluations (e.g. IQ) via a study (recently integrated the info into the article: Neurogenetics – language GWAS

However, I largely agree – see for example this argument / its sources

Instead of arguing against, here's an arguments map (for and) against: Does pineapple belong on pizza?, Kialo

Thank you! This one is a bit late (I'll start working on the next one in a few days already).

Better to look at the sources for the short-items. BBQ also isn't healthy, but presumably you aren't doing that as often as using a gas stove and aren't standing right next to it all the time. There some studies on that too, e.g. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.5b01494 Here's a study I once included about wood-burning which can be a significant cancer hazard in winter days in some regions: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/dec/17/wood-burners-urban-air-pollution-cancer-risk-study https://doi.org/10.5194%2Facp-21-17865-2021
