Agreed.
Many is oversell.
Some is likely but not quite clear. If suspect many more faces will need to be eaten before there is any real shift.
The reports I've seen have all indicated those with eaten faces haven't changed their minds.
Cippola:s 5 laws of stupidity.
Always and inevitably, everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.
The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.
A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.
Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places, and under any circumstances, to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.
A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.
Just talk to people.
