cogentanalysis
This sounds like it ought to mean something, but every time I try to think what it might be I fail. Is it just clever?
Going to bed early and getting up early is no guarantee of health, wealth, or wisdom. Plus it's clever.
But it might cause it. Or it might not. If there's a correlation then that's interesting, surely? There's no smoke without a misunderstanding of causality.
Sure, she's slightly sacrificing accuracy on the altar of cleverness by not phrasing it "might make a man etc etc."
