p-values that are not in the physics ranges are ridiculous.
It's a shame everyone started copying physics but decided for higher acceptance/rejection values.
I was a little bit disappointed when I realized that a bunch of valid modern science is just proper experiment design and number crunching. If it's not physics, there's no models of why things work, there's just a p-value on the correlation or some other comparison function.
Medicine has turned into a field where you can't know a thing.

I love reading reports like the above:

p-values really do not help that much.
