And you reject a major body of work on the kind of problem you seem to be concerned with, further indication that normal means of inquiry will be fruitless. That obstinacy reads, most charitably, as showing off, and least charitably as being full of shit.

There's me, for example. I'm pretty clearly a few sandwiches short of a picnic, ask anybody who knows me.
