I find the confirmation of the theory, and the actual response of vendor |
2 |
implementations, useful. Using empirical evidence based on a significant |
3 |
sample size achieves that. The alternative is to make the assumption that |

the theory and the vendor implementation is correct, and I only do this |
5 |
when i have no useful evidence to use for verification. |

I dont understand how recommending using some SMART metrics and not others |
11 |
is anything to be suspicious of. How could manipulation of which metrics to |

recommend help Blackblaze's business? |
