That means the numbers are as bad as or worse than everyone expects, and the administration wants to hide that data so they can lie about it without contradiction.
- jonny_eh 1y agoAre they even collecting the data at this point? Do they even know how bad the numbers are?
- JohnFen 1y agoI don't know, but I'd bet that if they were expecting the numbers to be good, they would have made really sure the data was collected and reported.

- willis936 1y agoOccam's razor suggests a coverup. Means, motive, and opportunity. Hanlon's razor is what you're suggesting.
- itsdrewmiller 1y agoOccam's razor rarely ever suggests a cover up. I don't think Hanlon's razor quite applies here since it's not obviously stupidity or malice vs. just actual work prioritization with unexpectedly limited capacity.
