text: Although the specific paradoxical effect can in principle be revealed with infinitesimally small positive perturbations, in realistic experimental conditions with significant measurement noise, such small perturbations would decrease the signal-to-raise ratio, hence limiting the statistical power to infer the presence of the negative slope of response changes versus input perturbations.
