@pwalker. So far you seem to be thoroughly confused. You can't seem to tell the difference between Bookscan, Bookstat and Author Earnings. You do seem to have construed Scalzi's comments on Bookscan as applying to Bookstat and Author Earnings. To use your own statement, with the words in bold, italic and underlined added by me, you say:
When the model (Bookscan) provides results that prove false in one case, then the model (Bookscan) isn't likely to be a reliable guide to actual book sales in other cases.
Yet your argument seems to in fact be:
When the model (Bookscan) provides results that prove false in one case, then the model (Bookstat) isn't likely to be a reliable guide to actual book sales in other cases.
Plainly your argument is absurd given that Bookstat did not exist at the time and Author Earnings to the best of my recollection did not provide a breakup by author.
