This comes off as a disingenuous response, by typing out a large block of text while neglecting to address any of the individual concerns written in the article. "it’s just data from our survey" is a cop out -- the presentation of data is just as important as the data itself, and the concerns of underlying bias via communication model presented by Zach all seem reasonable to myself.

It's fine to not be an expert in Data Analysis, and if it's true that the company no longer employs someone with those skills, there should be a greater willingness to make adjustments and corrections when problems are raised with publicized analysis.

No that's obviously not true, we have a data team and the survey is run by our data team as it's been every year.
