Thanks for the comments Matt. I’ve adjusted and improved the post based on your input.
I was aware of this info and assumed everybody else would be too, so I just took it as read. However, I agree these points are not clear enough in the original post above.
I’ve now changed the heading to add the clarity that it only applies to non-RCT/”real world” distributions. I’ve also inserted a sentence in the final paragraph to make it clear the RCTs do show such evidence and this is the basis for GiveWell’s recommendation.
