Teenager Makes Discovery About Galaxy Distribution

...what other obvious things we didn't really bother to check?

Well, let's see here:

Economics:

1) Sovereign debt is not like ordinary debt, so it's OK for the US to have a large deficit
2) A little inflation is good (but we can't tell you what the best value actually is)

Medicine:

1) Depression is a disease, and not a consequence of another disorder (as "fever" is)
2) Depression meds actually work
3) Obesity can be fixed by a) diet, b) exercise, or c) eating less
4) Every medical study that hasn't been replicated at least once [slashdot.org]

Psychology:

1) Seeing a psychiatrist has more benefit than not seeing one
2) Every study which hasn't been replicated at least once [nature.com] (More info [nature.com])

Social sciences:

1) Every study which hasn't been replicated at least once

Physics, Chemistry, other "hard" sciences:

Nothing, really. Most everything of note has been replicated and confirmed by independent experimenters.
