Heating and ionization are not the only ways in which chemical reactions can be influenced. See: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4340277/ for an overview (contains both positive and negative results).


Cool. All it takes is replication. The trial lawyers will beat a $100B path to your door once those pesky negative results are accounted for.

Yes, but this says nothing about whether the spectrum is smooth versus a spike, which could make a difference. Anyway, I think it can be a mistake to hide behind known mechanisms, while the empirical evidence shows that something else is going on.
