It's probably a hoaxster. The only Dr. Eidelman I could find is an 82-year-old neurologist. https://www.healthgrades.com/physician/dr-benjamin-eidelman-y5s5f

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

TIL: When we pull clothes from the dryer, there’s a reason we can’t tell if they are cold or wet. Humans don’t have humidity receptors to detect wetness.

I should have suspected something like this was at play.

Latest from Tree of Woe...
Freedom is always under siege from the roving bandits that seek to tyrannize and plunder the free. To protect themselves, the Founding Fathers of the United States erected the Constitution as a citadel of freedom. Like Minas Tirith, it was built with seven walls. From outer to inner, the walls are:
A written constitution.
A vertical separation of powers.
A horizontal separation of powers.
A government of enumerated powers.
A government of mixed type.
A bill of enumerated rights.
An acknowledgment of unwritten rights.
All seven walls have been breached, or worse — many of the gates were opened by naïve fools, would-be tyrants, and disloyal magistrates, or left unmanned by a decadent and distracted citizenry.

The number of science and technology research papers published has skyrocketed over the past few decades — but the ‘disruptiveness’ of those papers has dropped, according to an analysis of how radically papers depart from the previous literature1.
Data from millions of manunoscripts show that, compared with the mid-twentieth century, research done in the 2000s was much more likely to incrementally push science forward than to veer off in a new direction and render previous work obsolete. Analysis of patents from 1976 to 2010 showed the same trend.
“The data suggest something is changing,” says Russell Funk, a sociologist at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis and a co-author of the analysis, which was published on 4 January in Nature. “You don’t have quite the same intensity of breakthrough discoveries you once had.”
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-04577-5
My take on the reasons?
1) A culture of conformity enforced by centralized control of funding and a peer-review process that spikes work with the potential to upset the status quo.
2) An emphasis on social diversity and consensus instead of intellectual diversity and an openness to work that threatens mainstream ideas.

‘Disruptive’ science has declined — and no one knows why
Nature - The proportion of publications that send a field in a new direction has plummeted over the last half-century.
