Has no-one on the list jumped in to defend Gnuplot from this calumny?

While there are at least a dozen packages out there that can do
non-linear least squares fitting, there are only two that can take
into account the uncertainties in the measured values of the
independent variable(s) [by the Orear method].  Those two are Gnuplot
(version 5.0 or later) and Wolfram Experimental Data Analyst.
