Some even considering debunking it themselves, but ultimately deemed it too stupid to waste their time on.
The debunking part of it was easy, may of us could have done it, even very fast.
But you did it in an educational way, with a neutral dry scientific approach.
There was no real need for a debunk because most of us already knew, but you (and others) also delivered a lot of extra details and information.
I think it's only a little minority here that already knew ALL aspects.
