Great. So why is this relevant? I mean, if you're right (and you don't seem to be--a lay audience is no more familiar with specialized claims in math, physics, chemistry, etc. than they are in philosophy, and thus equally susceptible to bs), then this just shows that there's more of a need for quality control in these subjects, not less. So even if you're right (and you don't seem to be), it would only support the oppose of your point.
