Is the act of distinguishing a question from an answer as difficult as recognizing spurious correlations?

of overweight in Latin America and Caribbean countries):

If you are interested, please see also this thread on the importance of visualizing data (the Anscombe’s quartet, Simpson’s paradox are also included in @LabPlot):

We agree. But still, a question is just a question, and you can always refine your questions.

BTW, the Datasaurus Dozen example is already available in @LabPlot via File > Open Example.

For example: Tonga, Samoa, Kiribati, Nauru with electricity consumption per capita (the median) 548 kWh.
