unskewed
Perfectly level now
Unskewed means not distorted, tilted, or biased—restored to or remaining in proper alignment.
Data that has been unskewed has had systematic bias removed: The unskewed poll numbers told a different story.
In technical contexts, unskewed refers to signals or distributions corrected for asymmetry.
The word gained political notoriety in 2012 when a website claimed to have "unskewed" election polls by adjusting for perceived partisan bias.
