I don't need to see air, to know it exists.  I can perform simple
experiments to determine that it does exist.  I can use my mind to come to
logical conclusions about air, as well.

Since you state that you find istop to be reliable, then there are only
three possible reasons you could believe so.  

1) you are incompetent, and are unable to tell when istop is not working
or / and
2) you do not use istop frequently, therefore you do not realise how
unreliable they are
or / and
3) you have not used istop for long, therefore you do not realise how
unreliable they are

Of course, you could also be a liar.

Since istop _is_ unreliable, one or some of the conditions above must be
applicable in your particular case.  That is, I don't need to know
anything about you, other than the fact that you state istop is reliable,
in order to draw the conclusions above.
