Anyone that provides a purely intuition-based framework that resonates with someone's prejudices will continue to receive attention and endorsement. Calleman's work is no different than DW's work. As the info had become accepted as a viable worldview, it is necessarily self-fulfilling with any dissonance from reality being harmonized through some ad-hoc excuse or another.
That is quite a way of mixing/confusing apples and oranges at this stage of the game.
it is actually more an expression of the desire for remaining undisturbed in regard to the accustomed comfort and flow of life, and life/career future worked on so hard. natural.
