What I don't understand about this is what basis they could possibly have for making such a correction? The data is X, their algorithm says Y about it. Are they just claiming that "analysts" are better at triangulating than whatever their algorithm is? It's not like image classification, where it's at least plausible that a person can meaningfully "correct mistakes."
