One thing that is still open after james_edin’s answer:

How would you tell the difference between that and the alternative explanation?

This is where I part company with the consensus forming above. This treats a plausible mechanism as a demonstrated one. Plausible is where you start looking, not where you stop.

Agreed, and one caution: a single measurement is not a measurement. Anything that moves day to day needs a trend before it means anything at all.

Thank you — that is the clearest version of this I have read, and I have read a lot of them. I will report back once I have actually tried it.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. The mechanism and the magnitude are separate questions. Agreeing that something happens says nothing about whether it happens enough to act on.
