Statistics indicating a sudden increase in the incidence of a problem often merely reflect a heightened awareness of the problem or a greater ability to record its occurrence. Hence we should be wary of proposals for radical solutions to problems when those proposals are a reaction to new statistical data. The argumentation conforms most closely to which one of the following principles? ['A better cognizance of a problem does not warrant the undertaking of a radical solution to the problem.', 'Radical solutions to problems can cause other problems and end up doing more harm than good.', 'Statistical data should not be manipulated to make a radical solution to a problem seem more justified than it actually is.', 'Proposals for radical solutions to problems should be based on statistical data alone.']
