Thanks for the clarification. I generally consider that kind of 'failure in the analysis process' to be a second order effect, something to be taught after the audience is familiar and comfortable with handling the numbers at all. While a little bit of knowledge is dangerous, it's a phase everyone must pass through and is unavoidable.
