Why is this down voted? It is a decent point.

However I feel obliged to point out that most of the stuff posted on LW/OB written in this style ("saying complex things with simple words) dosen't much bother to deal with effect size.

Edit: Can downvoters of these two posts please explain why this particular comment is wrong? I really can't see it.
