Just in case some reader thinks Taylan (Male Feminist Arc) (nprofile…xnqn) is more persuasive: to measure the benefit of an intervention on a cohort, you compare against the same cohort, as https://doi.org/10.7759/cureus.36425 does. Not an entirely different cohort.
Comparing against an average cohort – as the study Taylan (Male Feminist Arc) (nprofile…xnqn) obliquely referenced is doing –, helps you to see whether you've solved the whole problem, *not* to see whether your intervention is useful.
What Taylan (Male Feminist Arc) (nprofile…xnqn) is doing is known as "lying".
