I don't think we actually disagree on anything, the only point I was making was that your reply to Lightwave, while accurate, wasn't actually replying to the point he made.

I did reply to his point. He spoke about nutrition science. That field has it's own problems that psychologists don't have to deal with. It's a bad example if he wanted to make the point you think he wanted to make.

Well fair enough. His use of nutrition science as an example was probably poorly chosen.
