Ok, let’s say not meaningless.

Let’s say it has (my guess of my particular case) a 30% error. What happens to CPI if the weighted average of housing is off by 30%? Assuming housing is a third of CPI, that puts CPI up to 10%.

Look, I’m actually looking to buy a home out in the country and remote work from there. I’m actually living the problem of “should I sell my home or rent it out?” It’s not a survey question, that’s for sure!
