The authors summarize a 10–20 percent cirrhosis reduction, but the tabulated simulated decreases span -20.8 to30.9 percent, with a reported average12.6 percent. Negative decreases denote estimated increases. This is neither a 10–20 percent reduction in whiskey drinking nor a measure of all policy harms or benefits.
