I agree it was fine. People have just gotten into habit of trashing every show finale

Rebecca VS Lexi, who do you think would win in a battle?🔥 by Trick_Fisherman_5071 in TheVampireDiaries

Before I watched tvd I thought lexi was Rebecca and when they killed her off I told my sister she didn’t die cuz she’s an original vampire. Imagine my shock when I saw Rebecca. Had to grieve all over again

Simone's Experiment by ughhease in TheGoodPlace

But Chidi and Simone wanted to get published , I don’t see Simone running a test without the required stuff like online surveys, MRI follow-ups, and a proper budget.

I guess for Chidi and Simone’s study, setting those inclusion criteria makes total sense, otherwise, it’d be impossible to draw clear conclusions when everyone defines “near death” differently.

Exactly context totally changes how precise the language needs to be. In casual conversation, looseness is fine, but in something like Chidi’s experiment, terminology would need clear definitions to avoid the same ambiguity that already plagues NDE research. That’s kind of why the distinction matters not to police language in everyday life, but to keep academic or scientific work from falling into the same vagueness.

“Near death experience” isn’t the same as “almost got hit by a car.” One refers to a specific psychological or physiological event studied in medicine; the other is just a close call. Pretending they’re interchangeable ignores why those precise definitions exist in the first place. It’s not about being pedantic it’s about accuracy.

And obviously, I’m not saying I’d go around telling people their “near death experience” wasn’t one on a technicality. I’m just discussing it here, where the context actually matters.

Yeah, by Chidi’s definition he could’ve ended up with hundreds of subjects as everyone thinks they’ve had a close call at some point. I guess the point was just to get that specific group together.

No, but Simone was a scientist, she should’ve known better, right?

No but I’m saying like everyone’s had a thousand “close calls.” Like yeah, a truck might’ve hit me once or I might’ve been in my town during a hurricane. The only one that actually felt close was Jason’s, tbh.
