That's sort of the point. There isn't enough data to extrapolate, and yet that's exactly what those outraged about AI were doing, and when you do do the very minimal types of analyses (permutation tests, and looking at distributions, mostly) that are actually valid, safe, standard, and useful to do on such low amounts of date, again, no evidence for the outrage shows up, and the two releases look so normal that it sort of shows no one would've cared if they hadn't known or found out that Claude was involved.

I really think this a much better standard of evidence — limited though it is — to outrage-fueled cherry-picked anecdotes, which is what has been driving this whole thing. If you disagree, and think the outrage should go one when I've shown there's an absence of evidence entirely for it (although of course, that's not evidence of absence; maybe I'll have to eat my words 5 releases down the line, but appealing to that now feels like a Russell's Teapot), would you care to explain why?
