I'm talking about a big data analysis exercise but am trying to say the answer cannot be taken as black and white, "the answer" in the usual way. What I've got so far is "while the process involves the analysis of data,it is important to remember that the result cannot be seen as the "final answer". "
I want them to use common sense and apply other knowledge. Anything better than final answer?

The result cannot be seen as definitive/conclusive.
