Thanks for the tip about the cup in meetings. Often these implicit rules are not obvious, so making them explicit is very helpful to work around and maybe even fix them.

Humans are guided by stereotypes and superstition and not scepticism and scientific reason. And if there is an individual that is sceptical and demands scientific reason, they are punished socially for it. This makes homo sapiens look a bit bad in my eyes.

Good scientific analysis does require a level of domain knowledge though. Otherwise you will be susceptible to those exact issues of sterotyping and superstition. Especially when we are talking about issues that are so complex and have such a long legacy.
