Evidence and limits

What is fact—and what is not?

  • Observed: Rank, count, and trend come from U.S. Social Security card applications.
  • Estimated: State classroom likelihood uses released records and an independence assumption. It is not a school prediction.
  • Editorial: Meaning, pronunciation, nicknames, and practical notes appear only after review.
  • Never inferred: Personality, intelligence, destiny, health, class, or what a child will become.
