Exhibit 4: [scans mushrooms placed into a plastic bag because there were no paper bags]
[AI doesn't recognise the item as mushrooms, obviously customer must be stealing something]
[wait for staff member to 'check our bags']

Australia does not have a national postdoc scheme. @arc_gov_au Aust Postdoc Fellowship (APD) ended in 2011. DECRA replaced it, but few recent PhDs apply. APD was for PhDs < 3 yrs exp. 110 grants for 3 yrs. ARC also targeted 15% Discovery $ to "ECR-only" projects (< 5 yrs PhD) 1/n

Faulty conclusions like this is what can happen when you don't use an appropriate DAG. The science has clearly shown that COVID was caused by the decline in Melbourne CBD traffic, which caused the increase in bike paths.
