How can a theorem be "poorly" used?

• lucasvb 12y ago
  Good point. I meant that they are presented and used in a much more limited scope than they could be.

  It's not used much? That's my understanding of the phrase.

    If you use the central limit theorem truly as a theorem, then you're using it correctly. Either a theorem applies or it does not. That's the point.

    Any theorem in statistics really. Also, Godel's Incompleteness Theorem.
