    it’s always good to verify your hypothesis even if it’s seemingly obvious. Just because something seems like it’s logical and how it should be doesn’t mean it is.

          In the same vein now we now exactly how much more effective it is vs alternatives. Studies often answer many questions at once even if on the face of it the study’s result seems obvious
