As ever, a great read from DynoMight! I particularly enjoy the assertion on the burden of proof being on the expert to show the flaw in a simpler proof (that disagrees?) with their own more complex one.

Highlights

If two people disagree, it should be the responsibility Dr. Fancy to explain what’s wrong with Dr. Simple, not the reverse.
