Dear Patricia,
I understand. I was expressing my concern, as a statistician, that
some of the earlier links in the chain may be broken. Are you able to
share my suggestions with them? If the figure is for a manuscript,
the reviewers may help those "earlier links" to see the need for
more-appropriate analysis.
