Being "data led" or "data driven", some of my least favourite phrases in policy, has become a big problem in politics too. Very often the data just tells you what the status quo is. It's not helpful in trying to create a new status quo

Just as in policy there has been a move to "evidence/data *informed*" rather than "driven/led", think a similar moderation is required in politics - measuring to explore what's worked and course-correcting if not, but not starting with the measurement
