I never said to throw away the results or that they were worthless. I was just pointing out a statistical weakness in their analysis that could potentially skew the results we see. To be discerning of the results rather than blindly following them, I thought, was the point of a discussion.

I'm actually a subscriber to CR, so I'm well aware of what they DO disclose vs. what they don't. And they've never fully disclosed their data (which to some extent I understand - data is $$). But as someone who works closely with data in day to day profession, I have to take what they show with a grain of salt, ESPECIALLY when something jumps 10 places from one year to the next.
Not at all personal and no I don't work for them. My diatribe, the parts about not throwing out the baby with the water, was directed at those saying because they listed this model as this then I don't believe anything they say in their survey
