So the margin of error is greater than the discovered difference? And because of that it could actually be lower not higher? Strange.

- Arnt 10y agoThe old number had a margin of error too. It's not strange, just a sign of thorough math. What they say is approximately "1.5-1.9 with values near 1.7 being most likely", so in layspeak and round numbers, the chance that actual number is higher is 90% and that it's lower is 10%.
- andy_ppp 10y agoGreat, thanks for clarifying that.
