Does anyone beside me think that presenting numbers to three significant figures, that vary nearly 100% from lowest to highest, is demonstrating an embarrassing lack of scientific numeracy?   Particularly since they are based on "few experimental studies and essentially no human data," to quote NCRP-121.
 
Remember, Ted, this is not engineering or physics where you can really measure things.  It is biology.  Even worst, it is epidemiology based on some poor studies.
