No data is better than 10 years of useless data. I’d much rather be in the position of designing the data collection (experimental design ftw) than trying to fix the problems with an overly complicated modeling project. Buuut, I am a statistician.
In my experience, having someone that knows what they’re doing on the front end of a study design wise can save weeks or months of work on the back end of a study or project.
