I'd try to argue about this stuff, myself, but I'm over fifty and
can't connect the dots anymore.

Anybody here remember Joel Ehrlich? He was quick to disabuse people
of their fears concerning an aluminum/Alzheimer's connection. As I
recall, Joel, who was/is a professional cook, happily pointed out that
almost all commercial kitchen pans are aluminum. If aluminum scares
you, don't eat out. Ever.
