Dr Tufekci, you would not be so hung up on this point, if you read the whole original Hobbes thread, where he says the comparison is invalid but he's trying to illustrate the point that neither association is proven causal while being broadly misinterpreted as causal

You can underline the importance of the extensive examination of the potential causal pathways for both in existing and pretty broad literature, and object to some or question studies, but both factors are way beyond glib/simple misinterpretations at this point.
