Indeed they are, and that is why I come here. I like to see research being questioned and critiqued. If I am interested in simply taking everything I read on the internet for granted, I'd visit Facebook or LinkedIn, instead.

Most of us are well aware that too much phone usage is probably bad for you in one way or another. There is no need to acknowledge that on this forum.

So what you have here is a typical case of confirmation bias, no need to get upset about it :)

Questioning research is good. Asking naive, obvious questions the researchers clearly predicted and accounted for is just adding noise and reducing signal.

Not all questions are good questions.
