Like they are on the same axis of some specific effect or result so they are somewhat statistically meaningful in determining the range of outputs or responses
Is orthogonality usually of a gradient or range like nature, is that essentially what is implied by orthogonality and the orthogonal items being on the same axis?
Edit- i think i might have misunderstood orthogonal
Tbh I thought they were talking about the null hypothesis.
I very well could be, I’ve seen it in the wild somewhere but i cant point to it
I was taught that it was called the antihypothesis in school
Ironically i dont think they ever covered that far and it was simply
Wondering if my all university/academic level science classes were less than exhaustive relative to what they should have been altho i cant complain
