gollark: We clearly need more data, and to see if the result is reproducible.
gollark: Yes, I was getting to that, some detection principles are wrong in some scenarios.
gollark: For example, gay-EM interference detectors detect gay by running light through long fibre-optic cables and detecting small rainbow disturbances produced by interaction with the gay field.
gollark: It would be possible to get better results if we knew exactly what gay detection systems were in use.
