nit on the nit: anything that is in fact used to produce science becomes by definition part of the scientific method.
And within research the distintiction whether something is on the “anecdotes from friends level” or “meta-analyses from decades” is a pretty significant one.
And if we as someone to “believe science” that is often how their personal “anecdotes from friends” level clashes with productions from professional belief formers.
The danger model where science gets ignored is when that everyday experience dominates and that is suspected to form bad epistemics. There is atleast the idea hovering around that science is more reliable because it can get by without the utilization of this kind of “dirty epistemics” that scienced should strive to be as dirt-free as possible to practise.
