Taking the question as asked, rather than the general version of it. It is worth asking what the claim would look like if it were false. If nothing would look different, it is not a claim about the world and no amount of discussion will settle it.
Asked to pay by a method with no recourse, by a supplier I had used twice before without being asked, which is what made me stop.
What I am trying to establish is how people are thinking about the trade-off between reversibility and privacy, because you cannot have both.
I would rather have one careful answer than five confident ones.

Agreed, and the size of the effect matters as much as its existence. Something real and small gets treated here as though it were real and decisive.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. Start from the measurement rather than the conclusion. Almost every disagreement here turns out to be two people measuring different things and comparing the numbers anyway.
