@samuelmehr unblocking you to say the following: you know I asked several times for the sources yesterday. I read the article, so do not accuse me of not doing so. I had no idea that info would be in the supplement. I asked where the data was.

I had enough scientists in my mentions yesterday to fill a bus, and apparently none of you read it either to be able to tell me.

Someone who was defending the article told me they used only contemporary data. Someone else said the same thing, elsewhere.

So excuse me if I, along with several others, missed it.

Now that I see the data? Well I can tell you: it cannot account for huge swaths of medieval Europe. It cannot tell you about adherence to Church law.’

Which I said yesterday when I told you and others over and over again that we cannot know that information.

We do know that Church law was not adhered to though and it was nigh impossible to enforce en masse.

We also have cousin marriage data from the early modern period. I don’t know if they accounted for that, because I didn’t check yet, but cousins marrying in 19th c England may run counter to their overall argument.
