Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Or, in less dramatic terms, if you cannot reject the null, you should operate on the assumption that the null holds.

If evidence exists (failed studies) of lack of causality, is it a proof that no causality exists?

I suspect I may not be the first person to entertain this question, perhaps there is some literature on the matter.
