I agree that @skdh has made an important, and lucid point that needs to be addressed. That said, your chauvinistic rant seems to indicate you don’t actually understand her argument.

Really not interested in a back and forth over who understands what. I was responding to a flood of dismissals I’ve seen that couldn’t possibly have been less “chauvinistic,” and the assertion that not immediately building a bigger collider is “giving up on basic science.”

It’s a difficult and subtle philosophical (and political)line to walk to decide which physical theories are “ready to be experimentally tested”, as opposed to other ones.. in this vein I think @skdh makes an important point
