Precisely. It's all about the mean, the mode and the median. Once you determine all the factors related to the consequential changes in the formula used to make the determination as to whether or not the differential is applicable, you will then be able to arrive at a conclusion which will tell you if the event will have the impact on the economic simulators as originally predicted.

Always thought the phase of the moon was a critical driver of results: the lunacy corollary. Astrologically sound!
If you laid all the economists end to end they would still never reach a conclusion.
