Only if you are endorsing their ideas in the face of an opposition which cannot cite such names. ;)

I haven't observed other people referencing those same names both before and after your appearance having all that much impact on you. Nor have I taken seriously your attempts to present a battle between "Perplexed and all Nobel prize winners" vs "others". I'd be very surprised if the guys behind the names really had your back in these fights, even if you are convinced you are fighting in their honour.
