Do you have a long term longitudinal study of many individuals backing up your claims, like this study does for claims about the importance of relationships to long term health?

What claims am I making? The article is the one that's claiming causation. I've merely said that its evidence is insufficient, and also that the title misstates the claims made in the article. The point of mentioning "those who get solitary joy with no social life" is that the title says this is good, but the article says it's not good—and therefore, even if we believed the conclusions the article tries to draw, the title gives bad advice.
