Exactly. There needs to be a few lines for justification of your logic below the answers. Also, why was "c" missing other than to make this seem slapdash?

But to the author's point, I wish that more people understood just how "soft" statistics can be compared to other mathematics disciplines. Some folks just view statistics as gospel, regardless of methods actually applied.

Ooof. My inferential thinking is suffering this morning apparently.
