I don't think there is. I've seen data suggesting correlation but no causal studies.

Yea, that is moving goalposts.

A causal study in this case is basically impossible.

So at the moment, we have correlation studies compared to your anecdote….

No it's not. The comment I replied to was the one suggesting there is a causal relationship.

My anecdote is a counterargument that shows the erroneous logic underlying the original claim.
