The interview lift of 3.1% is minimal, suggesting that interviews have a limited impact on the final outcome compared to written prosecution. The Chinese Academy of Sciences is a notable applicant appearing in this examiner's records. Practitioners may find that well-structured written arguments are sufficient to reach the 870-day median allowance without the need for an interview. Given the 3.1% lift, the effort required for an interview may not yield a significant statistical advantage in this specific docket.
