In my 5+ years, and easily over 8000 hours of field experience, I can easily say that their hang-ups have a lot less to do with empiricism, and a lot more to do with propaganda.
Pipelines has become a soiled word as the result of a targeted crusade against the use of fossil fuels. It is very similar to how the word liberal was turned against the American left.
Energy transportation is extremely complicated. Many people do not understand this fact.
