We could get into a detailed philosophical discussion about whether economic data amount to fact or fiction, which could detain us here for some considerable time. It seems to be pretty obvious, however, because the words are quite explicit and easily understood. If there is a dispute as to whether or not a definition is (a) or (b), and we have a debate on that, ultimately it is open to somebody to seek recourse to the courts in order to have that matter adjudicated upon.
