I do not think this is the point. The point is about culture: How umbrella advocates (UA) think everyone should use umbrellas, even when other researchers (OR) are inside a building and dry. They have a roof and doing great work on their computers.

Hope that helps clarify my position. I think yours is that you are very interested in having a "what methods are appropriate" debate for the stats people use on their empirical data. And I don't really have any skin in that game.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I believe lots of OR people would agree, but prescriptivism is a fact with the golden rule of p<0.05 = good, & given that a transition to a well functioning non prescriptive culture seems far away (if possible), better prescriptions may be just what is needed for the present

Of course I agree with not shoving those down people's throats, but I believe there is value in changing the default prescription most people follow blindly. My 1 cent

Fair enough. I just don't use p-values in my research though. So any fixes you come up for people who use p-values should probably not apply to my work since I never did "the bad thing".
