That reaction certainly comes as a surprise.  Why would you construe an
attack or a fallacy?

In any meaningful experiment the researcher attempts to reduce the
variables to a single factor.  Surely you'll agree that an established

scrutiny from an unregistered IP's edits.  Carcharoth himself concedes the
possibility.  What need could there be to apologize for agreeing?
