They also use mercury amalgam...

What's wrong with Broadmoor?

You might very well think that; I could not possibly comment.

This is The Sun we're talking about. "The reporter", or his AI, probably never left his London office.

The first four words are "The Sun has reported" so everything that follows may be sheer fantasy.

That's better. Thank you.

How about... running away from the scammers?

Ha. I acquired all Mary R Haas's books on Thai nearly 30 years ago. They were for a long time the definitive English-language scholarly resources on the Thai language, though naturally the language has changed in the decades since she compiled them. (Her main academic field was actually Native American languages, not Thai, which she only took up during WWII to help the war effort. Nothing if not thorough, she also acquired a Thai husband 😀) Incidentally, don't be fooled by the title of her Thai-English Students' Dictionary. On opening its 634 dense pages you soon realise that "Student" was intended to mean "PhD scholar", not "beginner" .

Nothing tricky about that. When Pali is transliterated into Thai script, no tone marks are used because Pali doesn't need them. Thai readers who don't speak Pali therefore automatically pronounce the Pali words according to the Thai rules for default tones, not how a native Pali speaker would say them. Yes, thank you, I have studied the tone rules (for a definitive work see Chapter III of The Thai System of Writing, by Mary R Haas, which I have in front of me right now) so I'm well aware that there are many syllables for which no modifying tone mark is needed. That's obvious just by looking at any typical bit of written Thai. (For example: อย่าสอนจระเข้ว่ายน้ำ has seven syllables but only four have tone marks.) Nevertheless, many other syllables do need a modifying tone mark. But I think you've missed my point, which is that when you see sixty-four consecutive syllables with no tone marks at all something is going on, and the something in this case is that the language isn't Thai.

One clue is that กรุงเทพมหานคร อมรรัตนโกสินทร์ มหินทรายุธยามหาดิลก ภพนพรัตน์ ราชธานีบุรีรมย์ อุดมราชนิเวศน์ มหาสถาน อมรพิมาน อวตารสถิต สักกะทัตติยะ วิษณุกรรมประสิทธิ์ has 64 syllables but not a single tone mark. Thai is tonal, but Pali is not.
