A category under 10 applications prints “under 10”, and beside a lone one the next-smallest is withheld too, so neither can be worked out from the whole. No rate is printed on fewer than 50 decisions. A denial rate does not control for credit history, income, debt or the property, so a difference between groups is not a measure of discrimination.
