I think you have a solid point, but

Fortunately, I have laboured long and hard to develop a scientific frame of mind, where decisions are based not on instinct and ideology, but on the evidence of reality, even in the face of incomplete information.

Yes, their actual argument is excellent, but this remark gives me instant /r/iamverysmart vibes

Yes, even I cringe when reading what I wrote.

Everyone does cringey things sometimes but it takes a great person to admit their mistakes
