You disagreed with a report that contains the experience of several people, data charts based on measurements made by various photography journals, and several anecdotal (but detailed) reports addressing problems people have encountered with film flatness. When asked what data you had collected (the same request you made for the authors of the report), you said that you hadn't measured anything because you had never seen the effect, and therefore found no need to do so. Fair enough. Your personal experience is valuable and interesting, (and I appreciate it). You have every right to refuse to believe other people's arguments until you see their data. But failure to see something for which you haven't looked is not strong evidence that it isn't there.
