I'd like to reiterate the question I asked yesterday, without David Miller oozing in here and shitting all over the thread.
Might it be a good idea to show how the expected values of the MRB coupons were calculated?

It might, but to what end, really? We know what we're doing and the numbers are honest. It's a lot of work. How much more work to try to explain? We make some mistakes, but we correct them when discovered. Do accountants, doctors, lawyers explain what they do? Always open to others' ideas, sometimes their estimates of value are more accurate, but not significantly.

As I said in the other (ruined) thread, as a service to subscribers who don't fully understand how the value numbers are derived (mostly in the context of the gambling coupons); to allay skepticism (since the casinos that still supply their own in-house coupon books usually grandiosely overstate the value of those books); and to provide, if and where needed, suggestions as how to maximize the coupons' value.
It might not make much difference at the end of the day, but it's something you'd only have to do once. Just a suggestion.
