One concrete data point for the thread. Practical: whatever you change, write down the date and the reason. In three months the reason is what you will have forgotten, and the reason is what makes the record worth having.
Following on from SleepDoc_PDX — and this may be the naive question:
What did you change at the same time, and can you separate the two now?

I read this differently from labquiet_amy, on substance rather than tone. The counter-case has not been addressed. Somebody upthread described the situation that does not fit, and the thread moved on rather than engaging with it, which is the failure mode this board is supposed to avoid.

labquiet_amy has the substance of this right. The condition it depends on is worth stating. Yes, and the corollary is less popular: if the reasoning holds, it also holds where it produces an answer we do not like.

Thank you for spelling out the reasoning rather than just the conclusion. Taking it to my next appointment.
