Possible Lessons From Other Endeavors

Moneyball - Long after it was first invented, slugging percentage gained new significance when baseball analysts realized that it combined with on-base percentage (OBP) to form a very good measure of a player's overall offensive production (in fact, OBP + SLG was originally referred to as "production" by baseball writer and statistician Bill James). A predecessor metric was developed by Branch Rickey in 1954. Rickey, in Life magazine, suggested that combining OBP with what he called "extra base power" (EBP) would give a better indicator of player performance than typical Triple Crown (stolen bases, runs batted in, batting average) stats.

How might Invitational Education be as important as the home advantage? - familiar facilities and in front of supportive fans.....Familiar Facilities, Routines and Supportive Teachers and Classmates....a home team can be expected to score 37.29% more goals than the away team....
