Bad example. Been there, done that.
I think neither of those sufficiently explains the event.
I'm skeptical and withhold judgement.
You're certainly entitled to your opinion. However (and to phrase it as delicately as possible, as I mean no offense), from having followed many of your posts spanning multiple subjects, I'm left with the impression that you primarily appear skeptical of skeptics. While I'd concede this might be an errant perception on my part, I don't consider your stance to be one denoting skepticism, but rather indicative of confirmation bias.
Likewise, and none taken.
I find myself more and more skeptical of "skeptics." There appears to be as much an industry of "debunking" as there is pseudoscience. And from what I've witnessed here over the last couple of years is many so-called "skeptics" of the ETH are as uninformed and rooted in "belief" as they so often suggest the "woowoos" are, exhibiting high degrees of subjective thinking when considering the ETH.
I believe I've pointed out a couple of good examples here in this very thread.
