The argument is over how I qualified "being used by serious experimenters". My operational definition clearly states "gain an understanding of" not "press a few buttons to see what happens".

I qualify "being used by serious experimenters" as a computer model or its theory of operation being seriously experimented with, by anyone who has the ability to do so. This can include teenage experimenters who spend some time experimenting with the on screen controls in order to gain an understanding of what happens when design parameters are changed.
Not being used by serious experimenters happens when all are stuck reading a book about a controversy that essentially argues ID theory for a model that can be seriously experimented with is possible, but none is included.
I don't know how you define "used by serious experimenters" but whatever it is it's scientifically useless academic snobbery that really only benefits the Discovery Institute and its affiliates. |

You don't have any operational definitions.
Tossing the words around as if you did is part and parcel of your ineptitude and dishonesty.
