In that unlikely situation, I think it should have been accepted. That's what "evidence-based medicine" means, right?

So, you’re prepared to accept the results of any study as long as it’s the ONLY study. That way lies madness.

Basically, yes. Of course, we can make an exception if the study has a particularly bad methodology and its conclusions are very implausible. But that's not the case with the Gary Kleck's study. Gary Kleck's study has a better methodology than my latest, and by far the best I made, study in social sciences does, and probably better methodology than any study in comparative linguistics or linguistic typology can possibly have. Gary Kleck's methodology cannot be the reason to reject his study and rely solely on intuition.
