Wow, it's almost like statistical analysis of populations is done in order to discover trends rather than interrogate individual cases in that population.

you can pick any x from X and say "but what about this one" and yet you are still left with the task of explaining the trend in your samples.

Any guesses as to the reasons behind these trends?
