a few thoughts here, premised on agreeing that a chunk of devpsych research is boring.
1) I think niche subfield conf's like CDS (and e.g. for me, BUCLD) exacerbate this, there often *is* a good reason under the hood, just not always one a trainee can quickly frame well in a 15-20' talk or poster.

I dont know anything that directly relates to epistemics but even older children feel that all sorts of sentences with two modals are contradictory (e.g. Staniszewski et al.: www.lingref.com/bucld/47/BUC...)
