Sounds like mob rule of physics to me; we haven't yet got past the
territorial nimby notions that knowledge is a matter of a vote by this
or that Scientific Community.

Against all the odds of inertia, self-interest and systematic
bamboozelment of the unscientifically-minded, science has, step-by-
step, via binary investigation, conjecture, and refutation transformed
the prospects of even the poorest on Earth.

Whatever the validity of Hammond's conjecture or proof, the attitude
betrayed in the responses of his critics is the reason scientists fear
ridicule and keep their heads down! In private, a space-time bubble,
