Agreed. And I definitely make no claims about this being earth-shattering "data science". I just happened spend a few hours over the weekend making some plots and commenting about what I saw with some Python tools.

I'll also state that I am neither a data scientist nor a statistician. I'm a Python application engineer with a background in mechanical engineering, so that might help set the context a bit more.

Most companies don't need "earth-shattering 'data science'", they need a way convey a narrative with their information and maybe try to deduce something from it.
