"I recall 4 or 5 statisticians, including David Cox, Ram Gnanadesikan and myself, driving from London to Sheffield. The question arose of how often each of us used multivariate techniques. The answers I recall were in the range from 1 in 50 to 1 in 200." John Tukey, ISR, 1991, p130

You haven’t explained a single time how sex is immutable or how people would belong to a gamete category if they never did or no longer can make gametes. It’s a polythetic or multivariate category based on the aggregate of all sex characteristics, i e all qualities that correlate to a gamete type.

When I first learned some linear algebra and statistics around the same time, it absolutely blew my mind that there was a recognizable analog written in matrix form, ((X'X)^-1)X'Y, that solved the same MSE minimization for multivariate regression as Cov(x,y)/Var(x) did for univariate regression.

In undergrad, formally I just took calc 1. In my postbac I signed up for classes that needed multivariate calc, linear algebra, diff eq + more & figured out prerequisite material on my own bc I had to catch up somehow. The extra work paid off. Hope it'll pay off again to get to this next skill level
