The problem with a list of proponents.

1 - It may be inaccurate.

2 - It doesn't say how strongly they support the idea.

and most of all

3 - Its not evidence. Its just argument from authority, which isn't even much of an argument let alone evidence. A detailed argument from them would have a lot more weight that a list with their name on it. A detailed argument from them combined with actual evidence to back up their points might be enough to be convincing. A list of their names is not.
