It’s odd…
In recent years we’ve returned to correct science on overprocessed food. Our digestive system needs to work for its living, and it needs to chew up individual fibers to get the most out of nutrition. If we digest food before we insert it in the mouth, the system atrophies. This was understood in 1900, then disunderstood in the 50s.
In recent years we’ve gone the other way on overprocessed data. We ONLY ACCEPT overprocessed factory-farmed data. Raw fibrous observations are contemptuously tossed aside as Anecdotal, when in fact raw fibrous observations are the ONLY data.
Anecfood is the only food. Anecdata is the only data.
The same rule applies to learning. Memorized theories are predigested food. Only actual skills learned by experience through muscles and senses are real learning.
