Well, thankfully it is not.

There's no need for one side or the other to "win," especially at this point. Instead, likely, debate will continue until a more-nuanced view is better understood and accurately disseminated.

(Not necessarily a view "in the middle." Sometimes one side is just Right, Full Stop. But a more-nuanced view when there's strong disagreement on both sides is usually helpful for more people to understand _why_ there's disagreement.)

Appeal to authority is only a fallacy where the authority is not actually an authority.

Mother nature decides such things ultimately, including whether the actions your and your Experts take are enough to carry the day.

Maybe best not to put all your eggs in one basket, or bet your future on one strategy!
