I downvoted not because it's unreasonable, but because it is a generic comment that carries no content of any particular relevance to the story at hand. It could be posted under almost any science story and it would be just as relevant.

The idea that scientists are human with their own bias isn't relevant in a thread about a scientific claim that the scientists have started backing off of once more examination occured?

No, you downvoted because you're a dumbass, you're rationalizing because you don't want to feel like a dumbass.

The fact that scientists are human beings is so obvious and banal that it adds nothing to the discussion of this particular experiment.

I agree with you bro, we should instead snicker at science for going back on something it said earlier.

Pointing out it's humans behind the curtain is for veggie eating hippies.
