So I did a quick search through the scholarly literature and the consensus is overwhelmingly the opposite of your claim. So much so that I’ve decided not to link any studies (there are literally thousands). Science isn’t perfect and statistics alone guarantee many ambiguous results, some of which you seem to have found.

It would help if you could link to at least one of the thousands. What's one you think makes a strong case? I'm not sure if you're referring to actual studies or, maybe, confusing blog posts and "expert" opinions with actual studies.
