Why we should be obligated to use the null hypothesis if it is reasonable

The logic of hypothesis testing is a specific application of decision theory, and it gives a normative or prescriptive idea of optimal decisions under uncertainty.  When we need to take decision/ conclude on hypothesis about a population,  we're going to be take a small sample and make a decision.  In this case we have considerable uncertainty. We don't know on the basis of our small samples whether what we're assuming is true in the population is actually accurate. In order to never be wrong we would have to measure an entire population that's not possible in most cases. Thus, scientific method for testing claim about population is required. Hypothesis test is a statistical method that uses sample data to evaluate a hypothesis about a population. S o, hypothesis test is really a set of rules that if scientists follow, we can be optimal in our decisions. In Hypothesis test, the null hypothesis s tates something very specific that in the population , for eg. population m...
