AM-

As an engineer, guess which side I belong to. No matter how irrefutable your scientific proof is, people will refute it anyway. Religious "creationists" don't believe in evolution regardless of the proof being dug up every day by paleontologists. Look at all the poor people the "educated" people of Salem, MA, burned as witches (a few hundred years ago).

But whether a modification actually works, or the owner just believes that it does, achieves the same thing.

According to science, bees can't fly. Too much body mass, too little wing area. According to Albert Einstein,
"Reality is nothing more than a persistent delusion". Some of us are more persistent in our delusions than others. Some of us are the "prey" that is sought by crooked marketers. Or "delusional inventors".
