I am of a diametrically opposite opinion from Nick's.
I think that it is about seven years now, that people with extraordinary, romantic, frustrating (etc) views about the MS have dominated the media with unsupportable hypotheses in papers, powerpoints and youtube videos. On average one about every three months.
It seems to have slowed down a bit? Maybe I am just imagining that.
I really appreciate seeing it being treated as a regular historical artifact, that is admittedly unsual, or even very unusual.
