Let me tell you: They're not even close and my version connecting the two was definitely better 😂

Yup we need to not only disclose and evaluate our reliances but also learn not to perform research that heavily relies on unverifiable or loose foundations. Of course that too depends on our careful, diligent, and honest analysis of those reliances.

Perhaps we could then even distinguish between theoretical reliance (e.g., what's load-bearing for one's hypotheses?) and empirical reliance (what's load bearing for valid inference?), and that would inform our assessment of the strength of scientific inference, severity of the tests, etc.

I think that's just an example of why it's not a good idea to take things out of context.

actively verify the load-bearing kind by careful empirical and theoretical evaluation. That's the kind of work we must read with intent and caution. This should be an essential step in the scientific activity and is part of how we can contribute to self-correction of the scientific process.

I'll come back to this idea because that complements something that's been brewing in my mind for some time. Some needed resolution in our citation practices where we explicitly distinguish between "load-bearing" work on which our inferences rely and others (kitchen sink citations). And the need to
