I mean people who work in L&D can tell you how common shitty fathers are…it’s not just anecdotal

They are the ones who will have seen the most deliveries, who the hell do you think would be more appropriate to have a good impression of the trends of that particular situation? You?

If I asked you to write down every meal you've eaten this year, how many will you accurately recall? Despite you being the only person present for every single one? You'll likely only remember "standouts"; the very best and very worst as well as generic, basic, or often repeated recipes - but you mostly won't even remember those individually, only be aware of having eaten them regularly.

In order to have data about your meals you'd have to write down the same set of information every time you dine.
