Oh yeah, I guessed that. Thanks.
Sorry, just a mistake i used to make a lot; citing sources has never convinced anyone. Closest ive ever seen work is exaggerating a number slightly so they correct you with the real-but-still-very-bad number,
They still don't give a shit, but they do acknowledge it if you can get them to do that.
You would rather win the argument with one person than serve more people the source to read for themselves? If you quote a paper it should be sourced. If you don't source it then it is suspicious and you are just creating conflict. Methods are important.
You don't realize how insane that is to say, because you're either not conscious or have no connection to material reality.
