Triangulate
A corporate way of saying "guess based on multiple wrong sources" that makes wild speculation sound like scientific analysis, usually used when you have no actual data.
Examples
Examples:
- "Let's triangulate this data." (let's make up numbers based on other made-up numbers)
- "We need to triangulate our findings." (we need to confirm our guesses with more guesses)
- "Triangulation will give us clarity." (making up more stuff will somehow make things clearer)
