I have a working hypothesis for scholarly debunking articles and conflict with the medical curriculum. Conflict with the medical curriculum comes prior to the scholarly debunking article. The arrow of causality arises with the conflict with the medical curriculum as taught, which then sets into motion a chain of events the outcome of which is a set of scholarly debunking articles.
I must again stress that I am amazed you didn't produce a scholarly debunking article for reflexology. That would have been way more in your style.
