It's a guideline, not a rule. The more you treat it like a rule, the worse the situation is.
There will never be an objective measure for conclusion 'correctness'.
It will always be the case that you actually have to think about the data and statistics critically and decide whether the conclusions are appropriate. In certain well-defined situations, you can start to use harder metrics, but that's rarely where the controversy is in the first place.
So if you want to, you know, do science, I urge you to use that big beautiful brain of yours. As a bonus, you don't even need to commit mass rat genocide to do it.
