Interesting you get downvoted for stating we should question everything to include authority.

Thought science was all about questioning and reconfirming truth as more knowledge is obtained

I think that we are in for a new renaissance of scientific discovery as we grapple with all of the issues related to the reproducibility crisis. It will lead to better statistics, better science and more useful results. Untill then we will have people arguing with the authority of their position and "because science"

If you took a look at the study and the margin of error for their results, you'd notice that the margin of error has an overwhelming overlap.
