4. completely accurate


I doubt its 1 or 4.
I doubt it's 1 or 4 either.

And that is the problem: with 2 or 3, users believe the data is telling them something, but there is no way to know whether or not it is accurate. But because they have data, they believe it is accurate. This is worse than having no data (and having to decide for yourself).
