A big chunk of my job is driven around collecting and analyzing data, and making statistics into something useful in a manufacturing environment. Even Engineers as a whole don't have a firm grasp of both definitions and the math behind statistical analysis (why does normality matter, yo?). The shitty part is if you don't set things up correctly, or you p-hack, etc. etc. then your statistics are junk. So, I agree with you, but there is a lot of danger there, as I'm sure you already know. How do you educate people on this kind of thing? The two biggest problems I think we have (what do you think here?): 1. The Fairness Doctrine needs to come back. 2. We need to have a massive overhaul and reinvestment in our public educational system. Are either of these things going to happen anytime soon (if ever)? HAH.We're going to have to embrace cold (emphasis - BORING) statistics in our efforts
