Agreed, and the size of the effect matters as much as its existence. Something real and small gets treated here as though it were real and decisive.

Coming at sarah.morrison’s question from a different direction. Whatever the answer turns out to be, the method for getting there is the same: state the assumption, do the arithmetic in public, and invite the correction. That is slower than asserting, and it is the only version that survives being wrong.
