What is the definition of Competing Studies?

"Competing studies" is like a bunch of cat owners in a dog show, each claiming to have found the perfect tabby, but with slightly different (and sometimes questionable) criteria. Imagine if every cat lover in the world started publishing their research on which breed has the best fur texture, only to find out they're all just arguing over whether their cat's whiskers are 'ore effective' at hiding claws or simply 'cuter.'

Here's an edgy example sentence: "The two competing studies on the perfect diet for sloths are so contradictory, we're left wondering if the real question isn't 'What's in their food?' but 'How many bananas should a sloth eat before it starts eating its own poop?'"
