The butterfly flap is based on too few data points. If there were only 100 weather sensors, and I made a complex weather model, the effect of any 1 sensor on the whole model is huge. Therefore a small effect, like a “butterfly flap” at one of the sensors can make my weather model predict extreme events. The flap doesn’t affect the weather, only the model.
