    @franckramus je pense que le fond de ce type d&amp;#39;arguments (avec lesquels je ne suis pas forcément d&amp;#39;accord par ailleurs) c&amp;#39;est l&amp;#39;idée qu&amp;#39;un indicateur quantitatif sera toujours trop pauvre pour se substituer à un jugement de valeur intuitif. D&amp;#39;un côté, c&amp;#39;est vrai que traduire ce qui est souhaitable en termes quantitatifs ne va pas toujours de soi. Mais de l&amp;#39;autre, les jugements qualitatifs sont souvent biaisés.

    For those interested, I&amp;#39;m writing a blog with reflexions on modal discourse (possibilities and necessities, in all senses of the term) and its interaction with representation / modelling activies, issued from my postdoctoral Marie-Curie project at UCM https://modalitiesrepresentation.blogspot.com In the first few posts, I attempt to reach a taxonomy of modalities: https://modalitiesrepresentation.blogspot.com/2024/02/the-variety-of-modalities.html https://modalitiesrepresentation.blogs...

    Parfois les gens ont la perception que les choses empirent partout alors que les statistiques montrent qu&amp;#39;elles s&amp;#39;améliorent globalement. Les deux pourraient-ils avoir raison ? Le paradoxe de Simpson https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradoxe_de_Simpson peut rendre compte de tels cas, en théorie. 🧶👇
