The place where you throw away all the statistics in the evolution analogy that you use to argue against the rain is shown in bold. Neither is more magic than the other.
I can expect your models to have some flaws that may turn out to be significant without expecting revolutions in physics.
That's not how the laws of physics work... Generally if something's changed (for example, something that would allow blaland to be wetter) it applies consistently, and not in just one geographical region. All places similar to blaland would also be affected, if we want coherence. This is an issue of incoherence, not the laws of physics being different. It's like you copy pasted the laws of physics in your area, and that area only.
Also, I don't have to be the one making the models. There are other global climate models, developed by Actual Professionals
TM, available which we might be able to use and modify.
because you're not a phd meterologist yet
I don't intend to get a PhD at the moment, so that's not relevant, as you like to say.
This is a lot like the economic/population discussion where people used Earthly guidelines to determine their facts because they aren't actual economists and then claiming "unless you're an economist you can't prove me wrong", which is really not ideal and we can work around that as a group. We don't have to be experts, and we don't have to make everything be magical, we can approximate realism.
Well this irc chat from 4 days ago gave me the impression we weren't at a disagreement anymore
I didn't feel like arguing and I felt pretty apathetic about most things then.
This is outside my interest.
So because you, personally, don't care about it, means we should change the way the project is run as a collaborative entity? If it's outside your interest, then you wouldn't care that much about Blaland's climate. Yes, you can be concerned about the climate in your land without being interested in the climate simulation, I get that.
So far I've offered to move the continent, I've offered to at least consider 5 belts, I've offered gradients inside my borders, I've also been open to having areas that are more dry than forest in many places, and more like savanna maybe.
I have been open to moving your land, though no one has taken any initiative to attempt this (I figured you or Fiah might try this, because it's your land, and Fiah is geology man), brushing it off as implausible, so maybe I'll try it later. A savanna solution might work for some regions of Blaland. 5 belts is quite improbable in my opinion.
