Comment on Does X cause Y? An in-depth evidence review (2021)parent

Comments

Tell that to one who gives you a punch in the face, that there is no causal relationship between his desire to punch you and your bloody nose :-)

They just get a couple of harder punch back. But you missed the point in your rush to make a dramatic comment. It's not about how someone would interpret the causality or how they react. It is about about how a set of events can't be considered as an isolated system of chain of causally related things, disconnected from other things. If you like to think about it in terms of punches, I think you would get lots of them.
