Would the results of such a study be compromised if you were supported (in
money and/or supplies, ie having the devices for free) by *all* of the
manufaturers of devices you test? If they all pay an equal part , no one is
or can feel more entitled to become the ''winner''. Or would this be
unethical as well?
Just wondering.
