I'd go farther: you can peddle bad math to almost any scientist but a mathematician who does other science. Doctors are the worst - they're not scientists but we treat them that way. Based on the krep models behind climate science, maybe they are the worst actual scientists.

The evil bigot that lives in my heart rolls his devil eyes every time one of the authors of a paper has a MD after his name. I brace for the stupid that always follows.
