Apr 12, 2012 at 1:35	comment	added	Cyan		All three of the current answers are very good. I would add only that Wagenmakers is making a strawman argument in the sense that no frequentist statistician would ever recommend this confidence interval -- it exists in the literature only as an example of a pathological confidence interval. From a frequentist point of view, it demonstrates that confidence coverage alone is not sufficient for good inference. (I'm a Bayesian.)
