I agree with you and don’t know why people pile on against you. Is the guy cringey? Sure. Would it be more useful to humanity if he just donated his money to existing and more reputable research? For sure. But he’s just tinkering on himself, which is his right, and shares what he learns.
Is he misguided and a quack who may not learn anything? Maybe, but sometimes it’s the crazy folks who go against the grain that stumble on some good ideas.
Also, if anything he tries is interesting, yes of course he’s just a sample size of 1 - the idea is that other people could research it further.
(I think him roping other people in like his kid isn’t great)
