"Let's put it this way: he could have done his science if he had done so in a more diplomatic way. This might have entailed more disclaimers or pretending that he was just thinking out loud."
And immediately after that I said "I agree that scientists shouldn't have to be skilled at diplomacy."
So you told a partial truth in order to misrepresent my views.
No, I did a partial reading, you do sometimes blather on. I did not misrepresent your view.
And you did the same, used only half of my sentence.
Diplomacy has nothing to do with pretending, unless the diplomat is dishonest.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
