Genuinely, I would get fired
but as someone who is in the business, rather than a analyst for the NHS who is arguing for the sake of it, what i say is true.

The investment of time and money into the personalisation of your shopping trip, nearest store etc is far more than I suspect most people realise.

I know exactly what's going on.
Someone managery thinks we must put demographic predition into a sales forecast. Analyst says ok, puts it in doesn't make a statistical difference, manager says put it in anyway. Analyst does but weighs it as 0.0000001% of overall volume. Manager goes to bosses saying he's improved the forecast. Rinse and repeat for sex, children in household, pets, clubcard data, phone surveys, smell of bread as you walk in, wine offers etc.
Managers go on about how they're taking all variables into account. Analysts sigh.

I cannot even begin to tell you how far off the mark you are
maybe stop arguing about stuff you clearly have no idea about, it makes you look stupid and childish, k?

Go ask the nearest analyst about noise and extraneous variables dear.
