There are fewer things more exquisitely annoying than Nate Silver complaining about the data literacy of a lay audience that 538 knowingly panders to with slickly produced infographics that elide the subtlety of the data https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1324390609059282944

I sometimes wonder when Nate Silver goes on a tirade about data subtlety if he has ever visited his own website

538 sells people with generally bad numeracy skills a prediction that something has a 90% chance of happening. Then the initial media coverage of that thing predictably leads people to think that the thing might not happen, and they get upset.

And the response is to attack the people?

Either stop enjoying the financial benefits of selling your predictions on a mass media platform with a large lay audience, or start coming to grips with how people predictably consume and misinterpret the information you put out in the world.

You can't draw all this attention to a bright shiny object and then quietly explain in lengthy articles and podcasts released after the fact how people would understand that it's not really so shiny if only they were as smart as you.
