One of my customers, a dairy that processed raw milk, brought me in to solve their mystery of low cream yields. I determined, utilizing data, that during the pasteurization and separation process the homogenizer would over pressurize the cream line causing the cream to go to the drain. I tuned the PID loop and added an alarm that automatically shut down the system on overpressure. Saved them millions of dollars

The moral of the story is that data matters. You don't have any real, actual, verifiable data on voting and neither do I. But you don't want the data.
