Reverse-engineering from the missing data to an underlying philosophy is a very clever use of the data.

I wonder if there are any seasonal discontinuities? Those could indicate anything from a cultural shift in the censors to actual individual censors retiring and getting replaced, since so much of censorship is very subjective.

I wondered tho: was it really necessary in this case, since the underlying philosophy was already public knowledge?
