Would the climate issue thing be any different even if nobody applied any Bayesian methods and only went by frequentist statistics?

It's not that this is a problem with applying Bayesianism in science, it's that our thought is Bayesian on a fundamental level. And it couldn't be otherwise, at least not for beings as intelligent as humans.
