Clearly, this analysis shows that no solution is going to be perfect (but
we knew that already). OTOH, it does seem to shown that #1 has worse
problems than the others.

What it shows is that you can start from preconceived notions,
make up a bunch of random numbers unrelated to any sort of
testing or scientific basis, then say "See, it shows I was right".

Bollocks.

There speaks a man whose mind is made up, and who does not wish to be
confused by the facts.
