It's a finding. Not a statement. It's an observation of the data. Opinions are not valid. If you feel that "of course that is obvious duuuhh" well you can't actually make that claim unless you have data and the data reflects this. That's how science works.

You are technically correct, but:

  1. When you already only compare 3 groups and 2 are fairly close to each other while one is far off, it is nonsensical to point out large differences between the 2 cohorts. They defined them to be that way.
  2. This is not a scientific paper, it is not even a STEM related newspaper. Leave such nonsense out of there. Nobody needs a study to find that more rain = more water.
