Of course, it will never allow for debauchery like spraying nitrous to boost your numbers, although the "tune market" isn't very transparent, you're buying a black box essentially unless you've got the equipment to read it, and you have tuners that will send less safe "hot tunes" to certain people or all people in an effort to boost their numbers, so averaging it out would help discern honest results from the padded ones.
Unless it's just names with numbers and it's a weenie measuring contest with tons of unverified information associated with it, but that's not my definition of truth.
Tuners lie, people lie, and and they both cheat too. Now, I would want my name lined up with my quarter time, and he needs to fix it. But if we're doing anything beyond weenie flinging with names and numbers in a spreadsheet (like trying to help people figure out what direction they should take) then by all means, carry on. But if we're trying to help folks, none of the spreadsheets really accomplish that, and that's the truth.
