ffs, there are still "flat-earthers." i gues sthey think the world is like a pac-man screen and you just pop out hte other side? we've circumnavigated the world more than once and it's still a debate for some people, lol.
some refuse to believe the world is only 5000 years old too.

Your examples aren't appropriate for the discussion at hand. Each of those items have data that proves the existence of a different framework, whereas the conversation around "clutch" has only the fact that you can't find it.
For most, at some point, the lack of evidence is enough. But as Carl Sagan said, an absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Again, though, we're talking about a computer simulation, so the studies that have been done to date are reason enough to exclude "clutch" from the game, IHMO. They are not, IMHO again, enough to berate people for still thinking (hoping) it might exist. Human beings and human minds operate in weird ways.
