Anecdotal, but I haven’t known a single person that reversed their journey to obesity by replacing their sugar with artificial sweeteners. At the very least, it was encouraging them to continue (or increase) overeating because this stuff was supposedly not as bad.

But it looks like research is starting to indicate that it’s the same end result, just maybe involving some different biochemical pathways to get there.

Too bad his only other passengers weren’t that lawyer and head engineer.

Tbh that safety guy that got fired and sued pisses me off, too. His legal fees were being covered but he still settled out of court and allowed the problem to disappear for them.

Though the real villain is the legal system that allows a lawsuit about a safety director disagreeing that something was safe to proceed or one involving the wife who wasn’t otherwise involved. Which is also why I wish the lawyer, that said “ok” when the piece of shit asked him to file that lawsuit, was on the sub when it imploded.
