Is it falsifiable? What is H_0 in this study?

> Is it falsifiable?

Rather obviously, I'd think, if someone else looks at similar samples and sees no "Obelisks" at all. Or looks at their samples.

"The stuff we're seeing here doesn't exist"?

Or, IOW, "All the electron microscopes used have the same weird bug, showing obelisk-shaped pieces of RNA material where there really isn't anything at all"?

Feels a bit like what you want is really "We were all high on funny mushrooms when we saw that".

Look, I see from your other comments that you're actually not talking about this, but something else entirely. And you may well have a point there, but in order to make that point here, you would have had to come up with something a lot better than this. Because I'm fairly sure they weren't all high on funny mushrooms. Aren't you too, really?
