if your background is even remotely medical or biology research-based, even the world’s foremost expert is going to use a lot of hedging language because nobody wants to sound like an idiot for claiming “X gene does Y” then some grad student publishes a paper next year with smoking gun evidence that X gene isn’t even expressed in vivo lmao

one of the things i really really hate about medics is precisely that. just take damn accountability and make a statement
