There's much interest in whether the material known as #LK99 is a room-temperature superconductor. I'd like to address a much simpler question: Is there evidence that LK-99 has an unusually low room-temperature resistivity?

I am seeing a lot of newcomers lately to the room-temperature superconductor rodeo. They might not be aware of the long history of these events, and I think there’s some cross-cultural communications difficulties going on because of that.

It's a long read (I've spread it out over 24 hours!) but "A Vision of Metascience" by @michael_nielsen and Kanjun Qiu is well worth the time scienceplusplus.org/metascience/index.html
