Abstract
For example, while watching the Winter Olympics, a spectator might be curious if being the host country has historically been an advantage for winning medals. Without existing infrastructure dedicated to answering the kind of question being asked, even the most skilled and motivated of us would be hard-pressed to successfully investigate such a topic within a duration proportional to the relative unimportance of such a musing – and, unfortunately, the importance of a new question does not ease its investigation nor extend the time afforded to determine its answer.
