Agree. The issue is just extra work that usually you don't have to do. Imagine for example the work you do to figure out the race shape. I used to do it without Thorograph race shapes, after getting Thorograph race shapes, I can rely on the race shapes for part (part, but not all) of the job. If all of a sudden, the Thorograph race shapes started to stink, then the work I would need to do would go up. The unreliable ML is analogous to any other bad piece of information....you need to do the extra work you relied on somebody else for before.
