What about reason, logic, and knowledge that comes from science? For instance action is faster than reaction; therefore, bad guys have advantage if they know they're going to initiate gunfights.
Not going to follow you down a rabbit hole, Raisuli.
The only additional thing I'm going to say about anecdotal evidence is this: if the reason you know something is because someone told you about it, or you read about it, you've based your knowledge on anecdotal evidence.
Yeah, that simply means, however, that it's not to the satisfaction of scientists. So what? Wisdom about practical matters has passed down from one generation to the next in that manner for untold thousands of years?
