Actually looking at the results isn't "changing the criteria", it's looking at the results in a more nuanced way than null hypothesis testing.

I would have said that looking at chronic health outcomes after just a few years was probably a losing proposition, and asked to see some power calculations, or a longer term analysis plan.

I've done so for other studies. Was actually grousing about one in a meeting...two weeks ago?
