So what if there have been tens of thousands of papers on the Rorschachs! The geocentric universe was impervious to criticism for much longer. the incomes of those psychologists who are in denial about their game of follow-the-leader. NPOV is contrary to such occult practices.
Oh... and does this mean that if you were to be convinced that showing the blots does cause harm, you would then support their removal? Or is your position more absolutist, and you don't really care about whether they cause harm or not?
The harm that they inflict on the self-esteem of psychologists is hardly enough harm to justify such action. Showing that something can cause harm, is quite different than showing that it does.
That's a strange dodging of the question.
If you were convinced that showing the blots causes harm to potential patients, rather than to psychologists' self-esteem, would you then support the removal of the blots?
The fact is that I'm not convinced of that, so it's pointless to engage in hypotheticals about what I would do if I were.
