Nice try--but not quite (and I realize you're just playing devil's advocate here). 2 problems: 1) there are earlier sections of the ride with high power where the hub acts normally, and 2) while the data are identical in some sections, in other sections they're 'almost' identical, i.e. the power pattern repeats itself, but some of the other numbers may or may not repeat themselves. IOW, someone changed a couple of pieces in an attempt to 'not make it look like a clear cut and paste'. For me, THIS is the most obvious reason that the data are faked, and not an artifact of the PT. If you look closely at the raw data, you'll see exactly what I mean.

EDIT: oh yeah, and 3) if this were a software glitch, I think it's pretty likely that someone, somewhere, would have experienced or witnessed this before. I'm sure the folks contributing to this thread/comedy have seen a combined number of 'Tap files numbering in the 10's of thousands--and yet this is the first case--and the glitch just so happens to match up with a desired result?
