If only there were some sort of pattern we could discern...

Look, buddy, you and I probably agree on most things politically, but childishly calling names makes the world worse, not better. And that's even before we get to the fact that your zero-data judgment is exactly wrong.
First, you clearly didn't get the tongue in cheek reference to the tongue in cheek song. Look it up.
Second, I have a trans son who I cherish and who I supported every step of the way, from his coming out, through surgery, and now hormone therapy. He's one of the most courageous people I know.
You know who's been spotted here? The well-meaning but ultimately destructive clod who wants to throw around labels, polarize, call names, and make constructive dialogue impossible.

Wait, a pilot program?
Are they hoping to evaluate its effectiveness when an actual shooter appears???

Yeah...the variations here would probably be mostly noise in a statistical trend if you looked over a longer time frame.

Reply to ELI5 Why do Football (Soccer) players “flop”, that is fake or exaggerate injuries, so often? by Wasingtheisofwas
They do it to gain a tactical advantage, hoping the referee will make a favorable decision based on their acting ability.
I love soccer but I hate this bullshit. I wish that players were subject to after-the-match video review and suspension for simulating fouls.

I'm struggling to get anything from this. Looks like median days on market moved up or down largely independent of location? Or is there another point I'm missing?

Looks to me like the West has some leverage over India to get them to slow their purchases of crude oil from Fucking Russia.
Edit: LOL. I'd love to get some insight on why this is being downvoted. What's their issue? Opposed to international diplomacy? Supporter of Russia? Don't like the word "fucking"? Or maybe it's a fucking Russian troll bot.
