It's not a witch hunt. In this specific case this is a thread you started to discuss metrics, and the first sentence in this thread was you knew not everyone likes the graph. You have stated, multiple times, that you love being challenged, but when people, like myself, have disagreed with you, you tell us to go suit ourselves or float our boat. Me coming into a metrics thread and discussing metrics with you isn't a witch hunt. If we can't discuss metrics in a metrics thread, where else would we talk about them? And they aren't just in this thread. You are very vocal about your love for these metrics and they are in many of your posts in many threads. You can't create a thread about something, have us discuss it, and then call it a witch hunt. It didn't take much hunting to find it.
I think there is value in statistics and analytics. I have taken multiple advanced statistics courses in multiple fields of study in university. I understand the theory behind collecting, sorting, displaying, and interpreting statistics. I just don't think there is value in the outputs that come from the data collection you are defending. It's a difference of opinion that you said you welcome. However when you disagree with us, often we are told to fill our boots and suit ourselves. It's dismissive.
