| Nov 15, 2023 at 20:59 | comment | added | Ralph J♦ | @sophit I think the question -- asked as "are there studies on this?" truly can be answered with what you have here and the slightest bit of elaboration. Like a sentence or two on a couple of the studies and a link to each, followed by the link you posted supporting the statement "... and thousands more like these." The question is asking, has this been studied, and you provide conclusive proof that yes, in fact it sure has. | |
