No real answer but in a general sense I try to know that most things are a matter of perspective and truth is on a probability curve
It honestly depends more on the source to me. I'd like to claim to rely on data but life is short and there is no way I can verify even a fraction of all the truths I have come to accept.
when science backs it up.
What happens when "science" backs up two opposing ideas with sufficient evidence and logic to make either seem plausible?
Then the science isn't done evaluating the opposing ideas. That's the beauty of science, it can be proven wrong and still work.

I remember there was one fact I was really beating my head on; A dishwasher should always have some food or other gunk on the dishes before starting the machine, otherwise the detergent will attack the coloring on the dishes instead.
How has no company solved this problem? It makes no sense. Many people do wash their kitchenware so it doesn't stink up the entire dishwasher if it has been sitting for a while... idk.
I would be happy to hear if anyone can help confirm or dismiss this.
