Sorry about that; I believe I misread your comment as implying that if the moderator is ignorant, he won’t have enough information to form a reasonable prior. My disagreement was along that line, as it seems that misinformation, especially about medical things, is so prevalent that everyone’s default prior should be ‘fraud unless lots of evidence points the other way’.
I agree with that. not sure what you think i meant that you disagree with it.. (or was it directed at the comment above me?)
