I agree that 'how do placebos work' is an ongoing and intriguing question. However homoeopathy is not presented as a placebo-based treatment. The site assesses homoeopathy on its merits as presented by practitioners and supporters of homoeopathic treatments having incremental medicinal benefits. Of which there have been no appropriately controlled and reviewed studies with reproducible results. Placebo here is the 'base case'. I submit that the question was treated with an entirely appropriate degree of respect.
