And how exactly might most people “know” such a thing?

Intuition? Feelings? Tea leaves? Ouija boards?

Or do they, instead, systematically accumulate and numerically evaluate the time differentials between Hawthorne and Lexington and every other track in the country?

I humbly suggest that essentially nobody, much less “most people”, have ever done the latter.

You always have to do a review to see if the result make sense. In this case there are a number of places the conclusion does not make sense.

When the results of an analysis do not make sense in the real world there is likely a flaw in the methodology.

Yeah, I’ve been thinking about doing that - maybe I’ll post them sometime next month or so.
