I don’t think we can assume the errors are normally distributed. It’s possible researchers are biased in a particular “direction”, away from 0 on all dimensions

I don’t think we can assume the errors are normally distributed. It’s possible researchers are biased in a particular “direction”, away from 0 on all dimensions of this problem.

That's fine. It's still a normal distribution with a different mean. The Gaussian is characterized by having only the first two moments: mean and variance.
