In qordata’s most recent webinar, Ned Mumtaz revisited a concept mostly familiar to undergrads and professional statisticians. (And increasingly unfamiliar for the rest of us). The concept differentiated between correlation and causality. Corporate citizens tend to use ‘correlation’ as a blanket term for any variables that seem to have a corresponding relationship.
