I haven't read Brin's Salon article in years. I agree with a lot of it, but he

a) unfairly implies that Superman would not submit to scientific scrutiny (see page 1 of Action Comics #1, inter alia),

b) unfairly implies that Darth Vader murdered billions "with the push of a button". The only time we saw billions murdered was when Tarkin destroyed Alderaan.
