On Science and Faith-Based Product Safety
Let's pretend we are talking about a car.
I came upon a tweet, and the cognitive dissonance of said tweet made me ponder logic, citizen rights, and the value of good timing.
The quoted tweet is a little blunt but the article itself is written like a Soviet school essay where the conclusion is predefined, and the body of the essay is built around the conclusion. In other words, despite the puzzling tweet, the article oozes faith.
And faith is cool—please bear with my idealism for a minute—but if faith is such strong grounds for assuming the long-term safety of a product, why have the manufacturers been so pointedly intent on not being liable?
