That's fair; I've seen mask data falsified firsthand (the alternative would be to believe a statistical probability so remote as to be impossible). But I believe the endocrine disruptor claim since it's structurally similar enough to BPA it's certainly plausible.

The eggshell thinning thing is proven as well, and raptor populations have been recovering ever since its ban. I didn't even think bald eagles lived in IN, but by the time I was 30, seeing them wasn't super uncommon. They were simply not there when I was a kid because a.) so endangered, and b.) of course IN is a big agricultural state.

I'm really taking issue with your use of the word "incredibly" I think. Like... nah, I can believe the safety profile. It's not an acute poison - you wouldn't dream of using it for murder - but like most persistent pesticides, particularly lipid-soluble ones, there are some negative downstream effects.
