Poor people hardly ever die on luxury yatchs. Going barefoot is associated with a greater potential for foot injuries. Reading on a screen more is associated with eye strain.

Anyone can make up these claims, it doesn't make them medically causal facts, and the people involved in this paper should be embarrassed and suffer some loss of credibility.

Authors who use behavioral correlations as the basis of their studies are more likely to lose credibility.
