look I’m fine with people researching whatever the hell they want. That’s how we learn new unexpected things. Just so long as it doesn’t come at the expense of further research on stuff fields proven to be effective

Yeah, as for the first bit, for sure; exploration and discoveries mostly lead to advancements in the field.
The second sentence is a bit harder to grasp, because stuff that already works usually doesn’t need much further research. Unless you have something specific in mind or it’s a new field like mrna vaccinations against cancer, for example.
Getting back to the article, I like this quote:

Ya that second bit there is mostly why I’m fine with it. I think people get triggered a bit when they hear terms like “tranditional” medicine
