The argument: "where there are competing assertions, a false memory explains the discrepancy." Why isn't Kavanaugh the one with the false or suppressed memory? People often suppress memories that are painful or incongruous to their self-concept. Your explanation is no simpler.

1. Occam's razor is not an illusion. 2. You're 'mind reading' when you say everyone thinks their preferred explanation is the simple one. 3. Sam mentions assumptions. The more assumptions needed, the less likely the explanation.

"Occam's razor is an illusion" is a baffling reply to my comment. Scott didn't demonstrate any real understanding of the concept -- he used "simple" in the colloquial sense rather than the relevant sense: the number of assumptions in a given explanation.
