    It’s based on a thoughtful, rigorous analysis, but that 3.5% number is full of caveats. The fact that anyone regards it as a hard threshold is a sign of how easily nuance is lost on social media.

      While it might be thoughtful, it’s based on like 3 events. It’s crazy to even bother mention the 3.5% threshold with such a trivial sample size.
