At first glance they seem very different, but they actually have quite a bit in common. Both were “suggested to me” -- one by a Sensible Medicine reader and one by a twitter-colleague. Both relate to topics I have expressed pretty strong opinions about, opinions that I fully recognize might be wrong.
