I would (or might) agree if braces only could be used without any correction and only in stiff spines and without combining with nothing else and nobody ever heard about a successfully case.
But nothing of that is true, although probably (I’m almost sure) was used sometimes with insignificant correction, in stiff spines, without combining with other method and some people never heard about a successful case.
As I know there is no evidence that braces don’t works!
And braces are not guilty if unquestionable evidence about how good or bad are, seems to be ever questionable.
The fact(?) that nobody knows any record about a successful case dying because old age, of course not imply that should not works and should not be used. I don’t want to imagine how many things used in medicine, should have never been used if this would be the criteria to be followed.
If a right reasoning based on our (even limited) knowledge, is saying us that some product has good chances to works under certain conditions, it should not to be discarded unless the cost/profit would be bad or risks would be terrible. And brace principle is extremely logic and the cost, if it helps to avoid surgery could not be seen as so much great.
It has some risks and are not insignificant risks (even some are never mentioned) , but may be monitored and it may be suspended at any moment! Something so much different would be if we were talking about something irreversible.
When you analyze the convenience of some kind of solution, you should allways do the triple analysis: Feasibility, Cost/Profit and Risk analysis and in none of those seems to be so much weak in order to promote that should to be discarded.
It seems not logic to say that that people are doing the right!.
They should to do something else.
