**2014**

- [2389423-020](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2389423-020) [design/argued] -- Because the distribution in this sample is heteroscedastic, treating each data point equally would allocate inappropriate weight to data points in the distribution, which is why the author used robust and weighted regression specifications.
  > The heteroscedasticity of the distribution in the sample of this study suggests that it would be unreasonable to assume that each data point should be treated equally. Treating each data point equally would allocate inappropriate weight to the data points in the distribution.

- [2389423-021](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2389423-021) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Weighted least squares regression depends on estimated weights, and contrary to the theory behind the method the exact weights are almost never determinable in real applications such as this study.
  > A downside of weighted LSLR methodology is its dependence on estimated weights. Contrary to the theory behind weighted LSLR methodology, in real applications, such as the application in this study, the exact weights are almost never exactly determinable.
