I love your "The recent trend of ideologically motivated downvoting of factual arguments [...]" and then downvoting on ideological grounds with "+754%" right out "How to Lie with Statistics". Looking at the graph in the article shows the whole picture.
- lazyjones 7y ago> then downvoting on ideological grounds I downvoted a clearly factually wrong statement, namely that "all preorders were delivered in one month". The "754%" were a direct quote, source above, that indicates clearly that March wasn't the first (and only) month with increased sales due to the Model 3. Individual sales figures for the Model 3 were not available to me, otherwise I would have posted them (my estimate is around 280-300).
- _Codemonkeyism 7y agoThe "all preorders" was a generalization for "the peak of a steep Gauss curve was in one month". At least that was my explanation. What would be yours? Most people in Switzerland suddenly bought Model3s instead of VM Golfs in February?
