"Referee" is too unbiased a word. Shocking how frequently the consultants' conclusions mirror the arguments posed by the side that pays their fees.

Money is one thing, but there's also just plain old information bias. Politics don't go away when the consultants come in. The consultants are going to be working closer with the group that brought them in. It's not uncommon in my experience for the 'other group(s)' to ghost the consultants.
