After all, CrossFit and fucking around in the gym are far more popular than SS.
    I think there needs to be one of those fancy logical fallacies to describe what is happening with science now, namely insisting the absence of a study showing something means it cannot possibly be true. I don't know latin though, so I can't come up with a name.

    Peer review should be replaced by peer replication.

    Not enough latin, doesn't sound academic enough. Gotta be "climatus changum" or something.

    I think “climatus” is something that happens in the bedroom.

    I believe the fallacy you're looking for is non sequitur.

    As in our communal experience of "climatus mutatio interruptus"?

    Poly wowy, but that's not latin.

    This is how we used to do it in engineering; however, I imagine since I’ve been out of design, this, too has been abandoned.
