It reminds me of the debates in earlier decades about the health risks of smoking cigarettes. Is there anyone left in the world who doesn't recognize that smoking cigarettes are bad for your health? But it took decades to reach that point because it was inconvenient (read unprofitable) for a large sector of American business to admit that it was true and then do something about it. I remember reading smoking justifications that stated "here is a person who is 90 years old and has smoked cigarettes all their life, therefore cigarettes must not be bad for your health." Research is about provable trends, not individual examples.
