(c) having the actual score be far below expected log score for the best hypothesis tells us when some of our experiments must be giving us bogus data or having been performed under invisibly different conditions, a huge problem in many cases and something far beyond the ability of present “survey” methods to notice or handle.
The standard meta-analysis toolkit does include methods of looking at the heterogeneity in effect sizes. (This is fresh in my mind because it actually came up at yesterday’s CFAR colloquium regarding some academic research that we were discussing.)
I do not know how the frequentist approach compares to the Bayesian approach in this case.
