That specific mechanism? Probably not. But I wasn't here to say the effects were linear. I was just pointing out that complaining about sample size in a theoretical experiment where you can multiply the size in your head is a nonsensical objection.
Perhaps. I was merely trying to be precise with my answer so that I wouldn't say something silly (expecting the exact same number of deaths). I wasn't trying to be bitchy, though I fear it came off that way.
