Joseph, it’s silly to compare the two subjects and opine which is worse.
Stick to pointing out that the threshold for accepting anecdotal evidence is being applied unevenly. There’s nothing to be gained, though, by comparing the pain people must endure. When you say A is worse than B, it only comes across as unfairly and ignorantly minimizing the pain of B.
I agree with you completely, DY. My goal in my last comment was to make the same point you just made, in response to comments that implied one was worse than the other. By making the reverse argument paradoxically, even though I don’t subscribe to it, I wanted to point out it is equally silly.
