Why do Mittelstadt et al. (2016) argue that bias is unavoidable in algorithm design?

Because value judgments shape design and data choices from the outset

Because accuracy drops significantly if the system is not manually fine-tuned.

Because algorithms often rely on outdated information from legacy systems.

Because developers typically lack formal training in fairness metrics.
