I often see ‘not being comparative’ as a failure mode of many, many models. Some examples of what I’ve encountered: This therapy has saved people from cancer (yes, but how many in comparison with the official therapy?) Such and such leader knows NLP (yes, but many leaders in comparison do ignore it?) Such and such people managed to get thinner with paleo (yes but how many people didn’t? And how many people lose weight with other kinds of diets?)
