The quote is accurate and stupid. The emperor is naked, we can all see it.

Of course the quote is "accurate" -- the text appears in the article. But here we are purportedly discussing science journalism and we yet get troglodytic comments like that. I see no refutation of the article from you or anyone else. Your comment is pure emo and of no value whatsoever.

I won't respond further.

I must add this:

The "extraordinary claim" is obviously that a SciAm article is "stupid" and that "The emperor is naked, we can all see it".

No, the extraordinary claim is that women can compete at the highest level with men at the highest level. In any sport.

I think it's pretty clear that the onus of showing evidence is on the one with the extraordinary claim.
