Default Thrown out of an FBO...

That X happens is not evidence that Y caused X.
True, however, enough correlation over time certainly can make one wonder about a causal relationship.


One can wonder. However, that's only the first step, and the experiment
lacks a control. One could just as easily say that the growth of the
Internet did it.

For a less emotional equivalent, consider how antibacterial soaps have
improved hospital outcomes. Some theorize that we are just creating
breeding grounds for superbugs. Indeed, there is some evidence of that.
But for now it looks like antibacterial soaps have prevented many
diseases in hospitals.

The problem is, if the "breeding superbugs" theory is correct, by the
time we learn this, it will be far too late.

I may hold an opinion, but I am not (here) advocating one. Only that it
is important not to use faith based logic.
