A translation isn’t needed. Neither of us knows one way or the other, as I just said. I can’t prove that there is causation any more than you can’t prove that it’s not causation.
To truly determine a cause-and-effect relationship would require a randomization of treatments, in this case states, which simply isn’t practical. The logistics don’t work, not to mention the ethical problems with such an investigation.
This is merely an observational study. If you wish to believe that it comes down to some random coincidence, that’s on you. But if you really believe that, then let me leave you with something to think about:
The website I posted shows the suicide rates by state for several years. Check out the various years and you will see that there are some definite trends with the states at the top of the suicide rate list. Why are those states consistently at the top every single year? Montana, Alaska, and Wyoming, for example, are among the top 5 every single year. Neither you nor I can prove a causation or lack of causation there. Do you believe that is yet another magical coincidence? I don’t.
