(...) Yeah, but the results are only as accurate as the guesstimates used as inputs - GIGO you know.

(...) I don't think it does either. At least not completely, because the market isn't a shifting one (at least not at the like LEGO/don't like LEGO level) I'm just drawing the analogy to the very first people in that model that take something up (...)
