unpopular opinion: pharmacy is massively overrated

Pricing

Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles.

The claim: EMA matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides have been asserting it confidently for about 14 months without either producing anything.

What would actually settle it is 39 people measuring the same thing the same way. I have started; my numbers are below. They lean one way but not strongly enough for me to declare victory.

If you have data, post the data. If you have an opinion, flair it as an opinion.

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

Disagree on that part. 98.7% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.

Strongly agree. Pricing is local.

Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

The thing nobody prepared me for was the quiet. Not the appetite, the quiet. The constant negotiation in my head about food just stopped.
