Anyone can come up with any "statistic" to convince anyone of

Petr introduced quantitative evidence and an analysis. You can argue
that his numbers or his analysis are incorrect, but berating statistics
as a whole is not a compelling argument.

Although I tend to agree with Pasky, I think Luben has a point
in that the click count he quoted does not have enough samples
and also tainted by known skews (both Gitzilla and I have
admitted that we hit blames unnecessarily not because we wanted
to see the blamed project but because we wanted to see how the
blame on his site shows things) to draw any meaningful
conclusion.

But that is as far as I would go agreeing with Luben on this
thread.  If we did not have anything else that obviously are
clickable it might be natural to expect people to click on
otherwise unhighlighted filenames to grab the blob data.  But
the current layout that shows filenames in plain and a few
obviously clickable links on the same line draws eyes and mouse
away from the filename and to the links on the right hand side,
even for somebody like me, who intellectually knows (because I
merged it) that the filenames in trees ought to be clickable.
