Following on from pete_nash — and this may be the naive question:
What did you change at the same time, and can you separate the two now?

TomFromTexas said:The honest answer is that the effect is real, the magnitude is contested, and the individual variation is larger than either.
I am going to disagree with the direction of travel here. The thread has converged on the tidiest answer rather than the best-supported one, and those are not the same thing.

Agreed, and one caution: a single measurement is not a measurement. Anything that moves day to day needs a trend before it means anything at all.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. It helps to ask what evidence would change your mind before you look at any. If nothing would, the discussion is not about evidence, and it is better to say so early than to spend nine posts discovering it.
