This is not a scientific debate about interpretation of shared data — it's a pre-data debate where different clinical populations and practices produce different observed patterns. Keshen's observation supports pharmacological causation; Pandit's suggests population selection (careful screening prevents cases). The divergence itself is evidence of the current state: we are in the clinical pattern recognition phase before systematic epidemiological data. NBC News notes 'no drug label warnings about ED risk currently exist' and the Collaborative of Eating Disorders Organizations is 'calling for mandatory screening before prescribing' — regulatory and professional responses to uncertainty rather than established risk.
