Callie W. Babbitt, Hema Madaka, and colleagues assembled a database of materials used in consumer electronics by studying products in the lab and by gathering data from similar product studies. The team gave each of these studies a rating for level of detail (with a higher rating for reported data with more detail) and for level of traceability (with a higher rating for clearer descriptions of procedures). Based on these ratings, a second research team concluded that a study by Greg L. Kozak and Gregory A. Keoleian provided more specificity in its data than a study by Oguchi Masahiro and colleagues did.
Which finding, if true, would most directly challenge the second research team's conclusion?
