It is a pointless exercise to argue about the intricacies of signal to noise here.

Let us just say that I do not need or want a lecture in statistics. If you want to be pedantic go to a more suitable forum or is that fora?

To tell the truth all I care about is a clearer image of heavenly bodies so my natural urges can be satisfied by a certain frisson of manipulation of my telescope.
