...Hide the decline is contentious.

Fundamentally though if you have real, live, hour by hour data with spikes, extremes, anomalies and other variances - grafting this onto data where you are making a guess (reconstructions) and where you have data from maybe some randome sources (observations) and at a low resolution (twice a year to maybe once every 500 years) and even then you make a lot of assumptions that the data is correct - is not exactly comparing Granny Smiths with other Granny Smiths.
