Your comment is longer nonsense. Individual data points in a population cannot be biased. Bias is an aggregate statistic of the sample population. | ||

> Your comment is longer nonsense. Sigh, here we go. > Individual data points in a population cannot be biased. Indeed they[1] cannot! By the first definition I listed. Conversely, the term "tea party" is a "biased" political term by the second, as it connotes a particular political perspective. I didn't make this stuff up, check definition 1a in M-W: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bias#h1 [1] The discussion is about search terms, btw. Not "data points", which sort of confounds your analysis. | ||
