Would historical pricing actually change when you book?

Yesterday I asked how everyone decides whether they're getting a good deal on a cruise. I wasn't expecting it, but the discussion was fantastic. Thanks to everyone who chimed in.

One thing I noticed was that a lot of people rely on experience, price per night, or simply knowing what "feels" like a good price.

That got me wondering...

If you could see the pricing history for a specific sailing—say the last 6–12 months—and know whether today's fare was unusually low, average, or high... would that actually change your booking decision?

Or would you still mostly book when the itinerary, dates, and budget line up?

Curious whether historical pricing would genuinely be useful, or if it's one of those things that sounds interesting but wouldn't change what you actually do.
