This is the headline, and even it uses the word 'about'. Its immeadiately followed (as you yourself admit) by a quantification of that 'about', ie 0.6 +/- 0.2. Furthermore, the +/- 0.2 is itself quantified as being at 95% statistical confidence. Further, it then refers you to figure 1 (very tricky to find: its on the facing page) which refers to various other sources of uncertainty. It then gives you a reference to deeper into the report where these figures are based.

You seem to want a report consisting of nothing but qualifications with no actual data. While that might suit your bias, its unclear why you expect anyone else to agree.

About every 3 or 4 statement in this article is false. I have time to only correct one of them. Please see my correction below.

Patently not true. Look up the terms 'non-parametric statistics' and 'Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test.' The latter procedure can construct confidence tests from unknown samplings by evaluating sampling
