A lot of small things go on to gain an edge or even give oneself a perception of an edge. In retrospect, we are seeing things as black and white, cheater or no cheater, but there is gray.

We don't know what happened, except that the precision of the deflation indicates a human being did it. Brady might never have intentionally encouraged any such thing on a game day. His reaction that he plays by the rules rings true. He could be hedging a little bit, maybe "winked" at such tweaks.

“except that the precision of the deflation indicates a human being did it.”

Or that the laws of physics are constant.

That doesn’t seem valid.

...even assuming we had any idea what the actual precision was in order to discuss it.
