Regarding the frequentist vs bayesian debates, my slightly provocative take on these three cultures is

- subjective Bayes is the strawman that frequentist academics like to attack

- objective Bayes is a naive self-image that many Bayesian academics tend to possess

- pragmatic Bayes is the approach taken by practitioners that actually apply statistics to something (or in Gelman’s terms, do science)
