I don’t think the systems exhibited today are to be trusted at all (and note that using such a system to provide explanations for what another such system has concluded, is just piling BS on BS). That humans also do this all the time is “interesting”, “dangerous” etc., but it is also why trying to move from *superstition* (this is actually what “reasoning by correlation” amounts to) to more scientific methods is critical for anything like civilization to be created.
