Interesting to see quotes but note N=20 and the methodology doesn’t seem all that rigorous. I didn’t see anything that wasn’t exactly what you would expect to hear.

In these studies, the qualitative data is often a lot more informative than the quantitative.

Understanding how concrete people navigate a domain and noting the common points between them can be illuminating.

Trying to calculate a generalisable statistical result from them… probably not so much.
