> First, there's no scientific basis for doing so.

"No scientific basis" doesn't necessarily mean "false", otherwise you create a world where everything not mandatory is forbidden. Many doctors do exist in this world; they're always totally confident even when they're wrong, and they will tell you to not do things unless it's the specific thing they want you to do.

"No scientific basis" means you look at the best scientific evidence we have today and make informed decisions based on it. You don't make stuff up with the hope that it's helpful.
