Urbanecm_WMF added a comment to T418053: Add user account button to mobile web header: Instrumentation and experiment setup for first iteration A/B Test.

In estimation, we discussed how this task is related to T415647: Add "Create account" menu item to mobile web hamburger menu (since that task asks for a competing action, which might affect the experiment results). It would be great to get clarity from @KStoller-WMF (but I recognise she's currently unavailable).

Note this is impossible to verify without changing local CC configuration (you'd need to set the readValidationLogLevel option under a CommunityConfiguration provider and then introduce an invalid config to test this).
