Many studies assessing the relationship between physiological performance and skiing outcomes have employed statistical methods of questionable validity. Furthermore, the reliance on Fédération Internationale de Ski (FIS) points as a performance outcome variable presents additional limitations due to its potential unreliability in reflecting short-term, sport-specific performance.

Here we reassess available evidence for the long-held misconception of amoebae possessing exceptionally large genomes. Traditionally, estimates relied on inaccurate methods like DNA weight measurements, leading to inflated sizes. These methods failed to account for contaminating DNA from prey, endosymbionts, and intrinsic genomic features like ribosomal operon amplification.
