IMO the real problem is the article/news agency complaining that the data isn't broken down demographically, but then not doing that breakdown themselvesDid he not just provide better data, or more correctly a better interpretation of the data than the original author?
Isn’t you not recognizing and maybe even countering his analysis this “failing at statistics” in a way?
These threads just seem to move so fast, but always in a circle.
My suspicion is the demographic-based complaint allows throwing shade on the conclusions that can be drawn from the data while the actual demographic breakdown would likely show possibly undesirable conclusions relative to their desired narrative
