the japanese hired deming and paid him for his expertise.

I remember in a statistics class that when the Japanese had their
eyes opened by Deming and the concept of statitical sampling...
they freaked out when a review of WWII data showed they’d built,
hauled into the air, and dropped a crap-load of dud bombs.
And that proper sampling would have alerted them to this major problem.
