Thanks for the detailed comments. Is this the kind of thing you talk about at hexbear? I'd call myself a skeptic but I love the topic
Yeah we talk about it all the time! And it's ok to be skeptical. All this stuff is just a model to see the world through and no model is perfect. Sometimes models are very good at making predictions though, and it's worth trying to understand the logic behind something different so you spot concepts and functions that you hadn't considered.
