Correct as far as it goes. The part it does not cover is what to do when the honest answer is "not enough data", which is more often than anyone likes.

Thank you for spelling out the reasoning rather than just the conclusion. Printing the relevant bit and taking it with me.

I read this differently from PeptideChemSF, on substance rather than tone. Not convinced. The evidence being cited is consistent with the conclusion and also consistent with two other conclusions nobody has ruled out.

One concrete data point for the thread. One habit that pays for itself: post the method alongside the number. A figure without its method cannot be checked, and an unchecked figure is how this community accumulates folklore.

I would rather be corrected than agreed with, if it comes to it.
