I can see why my comment could come across as arrogant and in hindsight shouldn't have written it with that tone. However, I wrote it immediately after reading https://www.optimizely.com/statistics/ which makes a number of incredibly boastful claims about how Optimizely's approach is better than anything you've ever seen, and couldn't help but point out the hubris.

If you ever come up with a statistical method for finding the global maximum among an infinite number of unspecified alternatives, let me know.
