I'm not sure the data itself is flawed, perhaps the criteria used to define the data could be better?
As jfman indicates, another perhaps more accurate measure is to look at the additional deaths since the first Covid death compared to similar 12-month periods in previous years. But if this generates a higher figure than the 28-day figure then I can understand why the government would prefer the lower figure.
But all of this is incidental to Old Boy's catching-up claim.
