About

The person who usually finds me has two viable options, a spreadsheet comparing them, and no ability whatsoever to choose between them. They have done the analysis several times. The analysis keeps producing a tie. That tie is the useful information. Standing at a crossroads with really balanced options means the decision will not be made by evidence, because the evidence has already been gathered and it settled nothing. What remains is preference, which most people find much harder to consult than data. We work on getting you access to it. Caregiving surrounded me growing up, in a household where preferences were considered slightly indulgent. It took me years to locate my own. If your spreadsheet keeps tying, get in touch. Preference is harder to consult than evidence, and it is ultimately what decides this. Data has already done everything it can do here, and it produced a tie.
