yeah all of those things will affect your observation - but it's still an observation
you can say the same for any kind of analysis, recording, data gathering and whatnot (at least at the macro scale)
but none of that implies design
and the data you observe will exist regardless of whether or not you choose to observe it, or however you choose to
i suppose this is just a difference in philosophical approaches or something, we're prob never gonna agree :D
