> Simply saying something is old is unconvincing.

In many, if not all, scientific disciplines progress is being made so rapidly
that say that something is old is the same as saying that it
is at least suspect. In the biological sciences ten year old
theories are really ancient history.  In this field, saying it's
old should be a convincing argument to disregard it.
