Straw men everywhere about evidence-based medicine

NOTE:
Orac is on vacation recharging his Tarial cells and interacting with ion channel scientists, as a good computer should. In the meantime, he is rerunning oldies but goodies, classics, even. (OK, let's not get carried away.) Here's one from all the way back in 2007. Notice how, the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Evidence-based medicine is not perfect.
There, I've said it. Like anything else humans do in science or any other endeavor, evidence-based medicine (EBM) has its strengths and its weaknesses. On the whole, I consider it to be potentially vastly superior to the way that medicine was practiced in the past, bringing a systematic, scientific rigor to how we practice to replace parts of medicine that tended to be based as much (or more) on tradition or dogma as on evidence. Naturally, a common source of attacks on EBM is advocates of "alternative medicine," who often appeal to "different ways of knowing" or postmodernist attacks on scientific medicine itself as being "just another narrative." Of course, the reason for such attacks is obvious. EBM is a dire threat to their favored woo, which rarely, if ever, can demonstrate efficacy above that which can be attributed to placebo effect when tested in rigorous clinical trials. So it's not unexpected that advocates of "alternative" medicine would find EBM threatening.

Monthly Review | The Continuing Korean War in the Murderous History of Bombing

Para-demolition bombs being dropped on supply warehouses and dock facilities at a port in Wonsan, North Korea by the Fifth Air Force's B-26 Invader light bombers (ca. 1951). From USAF (photo 306-PS-51(10303)), public holdings of the National Archives and Records Administration, cataloged under the National Archives Identifier (NAID) 541959., Public Domain, Link.
Tim Beal is a retired New Zealand academic who has written extensively on Asia with a special focus on the Korean peninsula. His most recent work is the entry on Korea for
The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Imperialism and Anti-Imperialism (Springer Publishing, 2019).
Bombing is perhaps the epitome of modern military power and imperial might, both in symbolism and significance. Consider the medieval knight resplendent in his armor that protected against the enemy, most of whom were poorly equipped peasants. The richer he was, the better the armor, giving a sense of invulnerability and wealth, expressed in ornateness. It is not surprising that of all the artifacts of war that litter the grand houses and museums of Europe, it is the suit of armor that is most prominent.
