N=36 and testing protocol of 4 servings over a short period of time is all you need to know.

Even if you assume all they find is true, the effect could disappear or change into something else one month after initiation (dose accommodation, etc...)

How's your sleep?

Once I stopped drinking caffeinated soda my sleep quality improved massively. I was drinking it at least 8 hours before sleep, but apparently caffeine works close to 12 hours.

Like many things, it's about quantity.

Nobody would mind if there was one place on Earth which we would pollute in an extreme way. The problem is when we are polluting all over the place.

Now imagine if every major city started doing weather engineering.

It's unlikely that we would be able to have a giant effect, there is only so much energy we can put out, but local consequences could be pretty drastic. OTOH, local consequences will kind of fall in the same country.
