https://blog.ldodds.com/2020/01/31/do-data-scientists-spend-80-of-their-time-cleaning-data-turns-out-no/</a>, but it aligns with the Pareto Principle, so we are all willing to go with it!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">I suppose it is not that important whether it is 80% or 60%, it’s still a massive problem and the takeaway is that it highlights where the source of most effort is being expended, and
strongly suggests that it arises from poor data quality and lack of metadata to manage that.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
