Statistical Caliber
Statistical caliber refers to the calculation rules and definitional boundaries of a data metric, such as whether the metric includes specific orders, how the denominator is selected, and which time dimension is used. Inconsistent calibers are a common source of errors in data dashboards.

Statistical definitions refer to the calculation rules and definitional boundaries of data metrics, and inconsistent definitions are the most common cause of data dashboards that "look right but are actually wrong."
Differences in statistical scope (whether distributed photovoltaics are included, whether self-consumed electricity is counted) affect conclusions from comparisons of solar power generation.
Subtracting or adding the two sets of numbers for "development complete" and "acceptance passed" essentially treats two different nodes in the state machine as the same counting basis, which produces "double counting" or "undercounting".
Statistical basis refers to the complete set of rules followed when a number is counted, including the statistical object, time window, granularity, unit, data source priority, and deduplication rules.
