Agreed 100%. When insufficient data exists, you have to fall back to other sources like analogies, personal observations, secondhand knowledge, etc. However, I’ve seen too many instances of people claiming their own limited experience is the truth when overwhelming and easily attainable evidence and data exists that proves it to be false.
