You already said that my numbers were flawed. You have not demonstrated how they are flawed, yet you say I give "highly dubious" ammunition to ops. Again, where is my data flawed?
I have no problem saying this on the internet or anywhere else because I believe it is the truth, and the data supports that truth. Why should I find anything wrong wtih telling the truth? Because it might make life harder for you or for others in the profession? They need it harder. They need to be held to a higher standard. They need to show that the money spent on them is benefitting their company. If what they are doing is working, great. If it is not working why should any company continue to drop money into something that is not working?
LP has survived on fear of what could be happening. Nobody really expects them to reduce shrink, they just don't want to find out how bad it could be if LP were not there. In most cases, there wouldn't be a difference if LP wasn't there. I do not need to feel bad about saying this. The LP industry should feel bad that they are not doing more to make this statement untrue.
