"Ask your doctor if Miracurol is right for you."

Voiceover: "Miracurol. Because you deserve to live cancer-free."

Patient: "I exploded."

Miracurol: "That's extremely well documented on miracurol.org."

Wait, no, you just said

> I will define "trustworthy system" as one in which the author acknowledges and owns limitations

You can't then go on to complain that the author does document the limitations but considers the overall system good. Fil-C, by the definition you just espoused, is a "trustworthy system".

It’s really sad to see your posts on this thread. Fil-C is an incredible achievement and absolutely full of interesting technical details to dig into. I’m not a mod, but as a reader of the site and someone who takes a curious interest in the progress of Fil-C, can you please stop attacking its creator like this. It’s tedious, needlessly rude, and lessens the opportunity for the rest of us to actually learn something from an expert.
