After repeating the same lessons for so long, it becomes hard not to be snarky about it. Your basic sketch was solid. But a lot of the details were wrong, as others have pointed out. That faux hierarchy of epistemology, though, that is the real credibility killer.

Whereas expert opinion, long proven to be infallible, is 100% correct and unquestionable Which is why, I assume you follow the exact words of Emeritus Professor Simon Chapman, noted public health expert with decades of experience when it comes to vaping

You are really not making a very good case for yourself. There are no such decades. Chapman is not an expert on, well, anything. That is the point. You have to get out of the Dunning-Kruger hole to even know who the experts are. Only then can you sort out the claims.

You should definitely tell that to the University of Sydney it sounds like they've made a huge mistake! Or, perhaps, your opinion is INEXPERT and therefore can be ignored with ease

Nah, I'm good. You're not even an emeritus professor, I'm gonna go with the EXPERT and ignore the INEXPERT here because clearly the only thing of importance is titles

No, you are not good. That is the problem here. You are waaay over your head.

Man, it would be much easier to trust your opinions if you had an emeritus professorship. I don't believe things written by just anyone, I need an EXPERT!

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but Chapman is a bonkers demagogue, he is literally the last person to listen to about ecigs.

I'm merely pointing out that arguing based on expertise is total nonsense and even Carl doesn't believe that it's the right tack
