Wait, is 'Five Whys' an actual practice or is someone just trying to be funny? Either way, I'm going with it!

Statistical process control is important, but it's more about monitoring than root cause analysis. Five whys is definitely the right answer.

Pareto charts are awesome for prioritizing issues, but they don't necessarily identify the root cause. Five whys is the clear winner in this case.

Pareto charts are great for prioritizing, but they don't get to the root of the problem like Five whys does.

Scatter diagrams are great for visualizing relationships between variables, but they don't really focus on root cause. The five whys is the way to go here.
