I personally don't give a toss what the "public opinion" is on a subject where no one is being actually hurt. There have been many in history that have rallied against public opinion and turned out to be more right than the poublic. I could site many things but some aren't allowed to be discussed here.
Professionals in any field aren't the holders of truth to the exclusion of all else. They only know what they've been taught,what they have experienced in their field and in many cases what society allows to be believed in public. I find some of these "public opinions" abhorrent.
There were plenty of opposing theories before CERN was built to test some quite way out ideas. Ooh look what they found and oooh look the world didn't collapse into a black hole.
