If only all scientists could be this pragmatic
I appreciate the way this gentleman approaches the matter: he simply says that the system is so complex and there are so many things we don't know/understand that we shouldn't presume any specific findings.
We would all do well to take this approach until we have evidence to substantiate our points.

Yes, sadly, there are those who have corrupted nearly every good word in the dictionary to mean something different than its original meaning. A pragmatist does take on the warped meaning you allude to of being willing to compromise, but that definitely was not my original intent or use.
Thanks.
