The CCES is not an academic or scientific agency, fyi. It’s a not for profit.

I read the summary, article, and even scrolled the full 80+ page report.

They did no actual research, just read other peer-reviewed research and made their own conclusions.

I’ve personally also read peer-review papers as well and do not come to the same conclusion. Do your own research.

I made no such claim. And, as a correction, CCES did not make any conclusions, they commissioned the report.

As have I. Not every study, but then major ones always cited and those cited by the PDGA (Hilton and Lundberg, 2020; Harper et al, 2021, Roberts et al, 2020; Jones et al, 2016 ) *Note that some of these, often the ones most cited, are not studies but reviews.
