This comment reads more like dismissive pedantry. What happens on the whole statistically matters more than hoping to get lucky with perhaps some local effects cancelling each other out.

What is your actual point?

The point here is that "local effects cancelling each outer out" sum up to what happens statistically on the whole. You need to account for all of these.
