> So if "people's experiences" are an untrustworthy source of data

People's experiences are, as yet, an inaccessible source of data.

People's claims about their experiences are an often untrustworthy source of data.

> pray tell us just what could possibly be a trustworthy source of data??

The absence of an trustworthy, accessible source of data does not make untrustworthy or inaccessible sources of data trustworthy or accessible.

No, its not "people's experiences", but its also not a broad, general, representative source of data.
