With 6 subjects, it feels a bit silly to even turn on the math. 5% is about two legs of a participant. I think humans can process those low numbers instantly, intuitively; we can do it by pattern recognition, without the need for abstraction. The statistics of a dinner party. I think even some animals could do some "math" on 6 food.

Should be called "collected case studies" or something.
