Get the Credentialatrymug. Partaking in datalatry; worshipping data; especially in the case when a researcher engages in data dredging wherein they re-analyze their data until they get the statistically significant result they want & then despite the fact that their data has no true correlation with the question they are addressing, they still cite it as the answer to a problem -- data in this case becomes a false idol.
The survey study on whether one is happier if one becomes a parent was datalatrous humbug. No matter whether the data indicates that more people are happier being parents or not, it cannot properly answer the question. This is because it cannot study parents who became and never were parents at the same time. It also cannot study how those who choose not to become parents would have felt if they did. Finitude in the end is what blocks researchers from coming to a conclusive answer in this tangible world.

Get the can-do spiritmug. A dilettante who is interested in libertarianism, but would more often than not break with the philosophy, politics, and economics of libertarianism for supposed compassionate reasoning ; that comes from an opposing camp. They're a believer in the political doctrine that is libertarianism which emphasizes individual liberty and a lack of governmental regulation, intervention, and oversight both in matters of the economy and in personal behavior where no one’s rights are being violated or threatened. Yet they are quick to cede their beliefs to appease opposing camps or to maintain supposed good optics.
This compassionate quasi-libertarian is oft associated with girouettism The practice of frequently altering one's views and opinions to follow current trends, bandwagonism The tendency to jump on the bandwagon, i.e. to join a craze or trend, sometimes for profit, or with someone who is dangerously softhearted or affrighted to argue into the weeds about into the trade offs, consequentialism, rule utilitarianism, etc.

The compassionate quasi-libertarian was scared to mention the third variable effect where this "Z" that wasn't mentioned in the study the debaters were discussing was more likely to influence "A" rather than "B" that was mentioned in the study, but the compassionate qusai-libertarian was scarred that he'd be accused of not wanting to help "A"; albeit, in his heart he believes that intervening with "B" wouldn't help "A" and if only the got around to intervening with "Z" instead of "B" than everything would be swell.
