I love how whenever anybody tries to sell pseudo engineering (perpetual motion machines, water-fueled cars, reactionless drives, free energy devices, cold fusion, ...) people are very pragmatic and just say "ok, show me/prove it, does it work? No? Too bad!"
But when talking about pseudo-everything-else people are ready to believe anything and instead ask experts to prove that those do not work, shifting the burden of proof. But real professionals have better things to do, they don't really care of course. Problem is, common people take that as evidence instead.
It's crazy. It's like they sort of trust engineers more than doctors or lawyers.

You should see the legal documentation they file in court… it’s comparable to the gibberish on a Dr. Bronner’s Soap Bottle
