Making the "final reasoning" open without also making the data that was used to reach that final reasoning creates too much room for speculation and conspiracy theories.
Show me the data!
If I can examine it and reach the same or a different conclusion, then we can begin a real discussion on why. That's science.

- cerebellum42 10y agoI don't think anyone was arguing the data that the final evaluation is based on should not be open. The point is that the intermediate drafts of the evaluation itself do not need to be public and it's fair to deliberately keep them in the circle of people who are working on it or reviewing it.
