In todays world of "Precision amongst bigger numbers" it's true that when you are off, it may be more difficult to correct a low or a high, but with the precision of grams of carbs to insulin units it is much easier to be almost just as precise as with the "Law of low numbers" |
the math behind the law of low number is a accurate.
And its common sense that if you are guessing a number between 1 and 1000 and you are guessing a number between 1 and 50 your chances of being within 2 is greater on the second version.
Anytime anyone makes GLOBAL statements like everyone, always or ALL. Its almost never right.
The approach and tone is still a big problem for me as is the overwhelming negative tone of the book.
