From Strategic Planning to Adaptive Strategy
Marketing strategy has always been numbers driven. We survey a small selection of the population and then scale up those samples to make decisions. Unfortunately, our numbers are always wrong. They are backward looking, fraught with error and based on confidence intervals {that virtual guarantee that they’ll be wildly off one time in twenty}.
而且基于置信区间，XXXX
后面看得糊涂。

这里涉及到统计学问题。这里的one time in twenty应该指0.05，对应的置信区间是95%。这句话的意思应该是：我们的数据基于几乎肯定比95%差很远的置信区间。
统计学只懂点皮毛，所以没有能力解释清楚。关于置信区间，可以用“置信区间” “0.05”搜索，应该能得到一些线索。
