I once was in a situation where I had to hammer in a nail with a screwdriver (grabbing it by the front, hitting with the grip). The feeling I had back then is one I all too often experience again in programming.
This example isn't so much different; MCM = screw driver, problem = nail and learning proper statistics = driving to the hardware store and buying a hammer.
The only aspect where the comparison is somewhat lacking, is that the costs of having a hammer (both aquisition and storage) are minimal compared to in-depth knowledge about statistics.
