The scientific community missed a golden opportunity here! "Trick or Treatment" is the perfect Halloween-themed pun for randomized controlled trials. One group gets the actual treatment (treat), while the control group gets a sugar pill (trick). Scientists spend hours meticulously designing studies with proper controls, yet somehow overlooked this linguistic masterpiece. Next time you're designing a double-blind study, remember this naming convention and watch your grant applications soar to the top of the pile. Your ethics committee will either groan or give you immediate approval.
