Hey Dwight,  Good description!  But...  I think what Jens meant was, that 
when you view your tasks in any outline view, the values show as N/A in the 
Task Statistics, but if you look at the same task under the ToDo lists, you 
do see values.  So the question is more one of 'why can I not see the value 
in all views?' 

I came to the forum today with this question too!
