This is why I could never stand for election for the society of X or y technique. And even if I was crazy enough to do so, I would certainly never be elected !

I would have to consistently argue,
"Measuring the E wave is the fundamental axiom of cardiology."
"E waves contain more information than the entire rest of the echo!"
"Measuring the E wave is the fundamental axiom of cardiology."
"E waves contain more information than the entire rest of the echo!"
Meanwhile my brother, Barrel Francis, with whom I am on excellent terms in daily life, would have to publically pronounce the opposite.
"Pish and tish on the E wave! A wave rules!”
"A wave first, alphabetically and always."
"A wave so important that it's loss in AF is fatal"
"Pish and tish on the E wave! A wave rules!”
"A wave first, alphabetically and always."
"A wave so important that it's loss in AF is fatal"
We would be forced to face off in public and accuse each other of underhand dealings and general dubiousness. 
Franciss first law of medical politics
Once you become president of X,
Nothing you say about X is of any genuine scientific interest,
(Unless it is "X is not that good actually", in which case it means X is really really terrible)
