Basically, yes. Of course, we can make an exception if the study has a particularly bad methodology and its conclusions are very implausible.
That's silly. It ignores factors like study design, bias on either side of the investigation, or even simple technological issues.
In the case of Kleck's "estimate", how specifically have you excluded bias, from both respondents and from the collators of the replies? Remember, be specific.
