Almarg, I don't think anyone expects you to critique their decisions on wine, women, or song. Frankly, I don't really trust anyones experiences, other than a few friends where my experiences and theirs have corresponded frequently.
Also, I am very distrustful of those who use phrases, such as the laws of physics, etc. If I hear something very striking, as I know that our knowledge is incomplete, I ignore such opinions.
As a retired scientist, I have done my duty to the scientific method in noting research that violates ceteris paribus. I do see no reason for your avoiding pointing this out, however, as long as you know it may be ignored.
