> The core objective was to determine if a high frequency of HBEs causally links to a high rate of crashes. We employed negative binomial (NB) regression models [...].
A negative binomial regression fit on observational data cannot establish that a statistical relationship is causal.
Selling at a loss can also be a monopolistic practice: a firm with enough capital can sell at a loss to capture the market, and then buy out their now-flailing competition.
It's a store of value in the sense that it has a non-zero price at any given moment, but when people say that one of the functions of money is to be a store of value, they mean that its value must be reasonably stable so that its future usefulness is predictable.
The Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide does not require that perpetrators are successful in reducing the population of the targeted group, only that they "intend to destroy [it], in whole or in part" and take any of five specific categories of action with that intent.
Sorry, but that's super weak logic. That's like saying the KKK are perpetrating a genocide against blacks in the US right now. Or Hamas is perpetrating a genocide against the jews in Israel right now. At some point of failure to execute a plan, it no longer becomes a genocide.
There must be a difference between "genocide" and "attempted genocide" at the very least.
