If the exposure to 'other fields' merely informs to discount anecdotal evidence (power supplies are adequate, hence reports are fictions), or dissuades investigation (power supplies are obviously ill-designed, not worth bothering with), which seems to me to be just barely concealed (intentional or otherwise) message(s) in tomservo's post, then I would maintain the 'other fields' applicability is null.
I won't bother with the other points as they seems to me more than a little argumentative oriented.
Everything matters, don't forget to tweak your placebos!
