I agree. There is definately science to it all, and I used to love playing into a lot of that hype and internet info. But in the end I've concluded that I really don't have a clue in the grand scheme of things, so I just make sure to stick with regular change intervals, stick with recommended weights, and leave the science to the manufacturers because they know a million times more than I ever will.
