Following up on a hunch, or an intuition, is not the same as "being convinced" of something.
Following up on a hunch or intuition may not seem 'scientific', as it is often not the result of deduction.
However, the way in which it is being followed up can (and should) be scientific/deductive/whatever one might call it.
Being convinced includes blocking off alternatives, which is clearly not correct.
