So do I understand you correctly that you’re categorically excluding any kind of experimental evidence, no matter how well controlled or rigorous? That, so long as there is no breach of the source of the technique, you can’t be convinced?

I understand that any one person’s anecdotes are weak evidence, but your comments are going much further and claiming that such tests can never be evidence, even though much scientific knowledge is similarly obtained.

Experimental evidence is fine, given an actual experimental protocol. So far, all we have are weak anecdotes that don't come close to proving the assertion.
