| '''Relevant topic(s):''' [[1.2 Shared Reality]]
| |
| | |
| # At a conference on genetic engineering, two panelists, Dr. Hallstein and Dr. Yamazawa, are having a heated debate over the effectiveness of gene editing of mosquitos in reducing the spread of malaria. Dr. Hallstein thinks the approach can drastically reduce disease spread, whereas Dr. Yamazawa argues that it has negligible effect. How can the attendees of the conference decide who is correct in reality? Choose one.
| |
| ## They cannot. Both panelists are correct to themselves, and they should agree to disagree.
| |

| |
| ## They should defer to the most reputable senior scientist at the conference.
| |
