Yep. Regardless of whether it is positive or negative, you don't want your general employees commenting on the safety of the companies products. On such sensitive topics, you want to leave the floor open to SMEs and recognized industry experts.

Look, this time its bullshit. But let's say the company in this case is something like DuPont. Let's say the recognized industry experts are paid to shut up and write whitepapers backing up the company. This has happened plenty of times over the course of history and employees talking about unethical or even downright dangerous behavior should at least be heard I think... even if they don't understand what non-ionizing radiation is.

The problem is that opens the door for the company to sweep issues under the rug. This is a pattern history has repeated time and time again

How does that change the decision of not letting the company's accountant comment on safety?

What do you think? Give it a couple of your best effort theories.

Why would I give a theory when I don't even agree with your position. That is a bizarre request. I don't quite understand what point you're making except calling it a problem.

I find that answering a question with a question often results in better understanding and insightfulness by the pupil than just spoon-feeding it to them. Every good parent and professor will be familiar with this technique.

Thanks, but I want my beliefs to be based on more truths and fewer falsehoods as much I can, so your input doesn't really help me with my goals.
