What quantitative data would lead 1114/2056 to pick 4334? I suspect they were picked because they were very thin (to allow for easier triple balance), well driven and dependable. At least in my opinion, those are more qualitative measures opposed to quantitive. I'm not saying quantititative data isn't important, but how qualitative data is also necessary.
