Interesting, I went a little down the rabbit hole.

And it's not what I'm actually looking for. I'm looking for controlled studies with a falsifiable hypothesis and a detailed section on the study design :)

I've spent some time looking for such studies and I didn't find anything (convincing). So if anyone has something to share, I'd appreciate that

That's the problem tho: you don't be convinced because you're not rational on this topic. Prior data - no way around it except first hand experience. So you have to try - otherwise your ego/intellectual will invent decorative fantasies to call issue with any new data that challenges that. Understandable, no attack on your - but if you really want to get to the truth on this - channel it into trying for yourself first. That's the only way.

Then once you have sufficient prior data, you'll be able to actually look at the evidence (stuff, academic) if that actually interests you!
