In the CDF, the value of any point (X) represents the probability that a random draw would result in fewer conversions P(k < X). 1 - P(k < X) represents the probability that a random draw would result in more conversions P(k >= X).

These two probabilities are used to represent the probability that the selected segment will either outperform (P(k < X)) or underperform (P(k > X)) the overall set of users. Mixpanel takes the higher probability of the two, and calculate the p-value as 1 - max(P(outperform), P(underperform)).

Hi @dorothy-koh , looks like this information is already documented under Exclusion Step. (specifically here)

Perhaps we can reword the existing note about Exclusion step not being used for first step and last step to make it more clear instead of adding it as a FAQ which adds length to the already lengthy page.

oh I thought the note you highlighted is regarding how to build a funnel, rather than the expected results of building the funnel.

I could include it under the same section (since they both concern exclusion steps), but I'm concerned that having multiple examples might confuse the reader.
