Solution: ‘The Slippery Math of Causation’

This more related to the omnigenic model that’s referenced in the article: if every gene affects most traits we care about, maybe studying genes is too low-level for most things? Like of course a massive collection of atoms caused world war 2 but we gain no explanatory power by studying sociological conflicts at the level of atoms. Perhaps we need to find a higher level of abstraction over genes, such as gene networks.

This has nothing to do with causation. The solution to the first problem is this simple:

  if((a > 1 & b > 1 & c > 1) | 
     (a < 1 & b < 1 & c < 1)){
    event
  }else{
    no_event
  }

They introduce a bunch of artificial constraints and then get into weirdness about "cubies" and 3-D sandwiches which is fine for a puzzles sake but what does this have to do with "the math of causation"?
