Replying to @genkuroki
@genkuroki You recently reposted this apparently. It's important not to overlook how severity is used--to criticize. Claims associated with points in a CI may be warranted with low severity, & this is missed by reports of what's non-rejectable at a level, as a CI does.

A smart and thoughtful gift for your data science friends who would welcome an entre into the foundations of statistics. Price still < $30.
