Abstract
I have a few comments that I would like to make on this paper, which discusses a very important matter for academic statisticians as well as for the field of Statistics. Firstly, I wish to disagree with the statement that there is a “crisis” in Statistics in light of the increasing demand for statisticians, arising from the emergence of Data Science and more generally from Industry requiring “analytics”/Operations Research to help improve its processes; see [1]. Rather, it presents an opportunity for Statistics. It is not long ago that Statistics was not well known, and statisticians were mostly employed in academia or in government statistical services. As a result, Statistics was generally not seen by students as a career to focus on, and registration numbers were low.
