> Unfortunately, real science makes for a pretty lousy spectator sport :-).

I’ve found this whole thing incredibly entertaining and informative.

I actually agree with you because I've enjoyed it immensely but I suspect you and I share fairly nuanced and informed perspectives. My statement was more directed to those who seem to be expecting some kind of near-term definitive verdict or box score, more like a sporting event.

This is more like a high stakes multi round baking competition :)

I never thought of replication experiment as an alternative to televized sports, but this does it for me (caveat: I never really was into following sports competitions).

Imagine if national sports were replication attempts :P I suspect this whole story is at least going to inspire a few material science/chemistry/EE careers in South Korea!
