Yes but the breakdown would still be interesting. Especially if they've asked what party they would vote for if an election for the Scottish Government was happening. If they've asked this then we can see if they weighted the poll or just polled the members and put the results out. If there is an unusually higher number of SNP voters then that would cast doubt upon the headline figure. Also if the cybernats have been clever and not been honest about their choice of party to avoiding the weighting then we might see a odd anomaly were a surge of undiscovered Conservatives in Scotland have been found and turns out they support Yes!
It's hard to lie convincingly across the board. We should anomalies in the underling data is my point....We know it's an outlier and we suspect it's because they over-represent the SNP vote but more evidence helps.
