A narrower follow-up, since the general answer is now clear:
What did you change at the same time, and can you separate the two now?

This is where I part company with the consensus forming above. The objection nobody has made: this only works if the measurement is doing what we assume it is doing, and that assumption has not been tested here.
I would rather be corrected than agreed with, if it comes to it.

Correct as far as it goes. The part it does not cover is what to do when the honest answer is "not enough data", which is more often than anyone likes.

This is exactly what I could not find anywhere else. I will report back once I have actually tried it.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. The version of this that has an answer is narrower than the version being asked. Narrow it and it becomes tractable; leave it broad and the thread will produce nine confident and incompatible replies.
