• Expert estimates of probability are often off by factors of hundreds or
  thousands. [...] I used to be annoyed when the margin of error was high in
  a forecasting model that I might put together. Now I view it as perhaps the
  single most important piece of information that a forecaster provides. When
  we publish a forecast on FiveThirtyEight, I go to great lengths to document
  the uncertainty attached to it, even if the uncertainty is sufficiently
  large that the forecast won't make for punchy headlines.
