Quote appears on the Substack source, but the page is jointly bylined to Science From The Fringe and Bryce Nickels, so it is not a valid single-author quote attributable solely to Bryce Nickels.

The sentence appears verbatim on the cited Substack page, and that page is dated February 12, 2026. However, the byline on the source credits both Science From The Fringe and Bryce Nickels, not Bryce Nickels alone, so this platform cannot verify it as a single-author quote attributed only to Bryce Nickels.
