Exactly. Stats are simply data. It's what we do with that data that matters.
This is precisely what leads to so many wrong stats. You can't just sit and say stats are simply data. Since when is the collection and recording of that data ever perfect? How do you know all pertinent data was even looked at, much less gathered? "Stats are simply data", give me a friggin' break.

It is human nature to gravitate to what you want hear and to vilify what you don't want to hear.
