There is an unfortunate tendency to glorify the extrapolation process and pretend that it makes any given individual or group have acceptable values. It need not.

It seemed odd to me that so few people were bothered by the claims that CEV shouldn't care much about the inputs. If you expect it to give similar results if you put in a chimpanzee and a murderer and Archimedes, then why put in anything at all instead of just printing out the only results it gives?
