General quantitative thinking, and a sense of statistics, are still valuable. If you don't learn them from Bayes specifically, you should learn them somehow. The "square root of n rule" is still a stern master. And we're still not past having to think about whether our results make sense. [0] The rule of thumb that signal-to-noise improves with the square root of the number of measurements. Also, as my dad put it: "The more bad data we average together, the closer we get to the wrong answer." |
