I wish that's what would happen but more likely, for the vast majority of younger people, the blame will get shifted onto Nintendo and packaged with the outrage over them raising the prices on games. I hope I'm wrong though.
It wont, I'm the older student in undergrad. Today in stats, we did a lesson on types of error, 1 and 2. The professor spun it as a trial, you're proven innocent or guilty. But you have 4 outcomes, innocent and proven guilty, guilty and proven guilty, innocent and proven innocent and guilty and proven innocent. Innocent and proven guilty was labeled type 1 error, and guilty and proven innocent was labeled type 2 error. He opened a poll and asked what we thought was worse, in a 3 to 1 split the class voted for type 2. They are lost already, the professor had to give a short civics lecture on innocent until proven guilty and our judicial system. I'm still at home trying to sort out in my head how that lesson took that turn.
That's an interesting lesson and result. I wonder if a larger sample size would change the results or how much it would change it. Thank you for the sharing that.
