But again, it doesn't guarantee they'll get the desired result simply because they know about this.

That's realism.

And RchW sums it up quite nicely. By all means give us the statistics to use to make decisions. No doubt you will be more successful doing that, never said you wouldn't. Just don't ask for the exact formula that the OOTP engine uses.
That is the point.
When you cut out lines like this it shows that you don't understand what is being argued.

In OOTP you would be predicting performance based on an exact mathematical formula if it were spelled out as some are asking for.

With all of the stats why would you possibly need or for that matter want to have the exact formulas?
