The link it gives for the proof that smalltalk is productive contains the most fake cooked statistics I have ever seen: https://medium.com/smalltalk-talk/smalltalk-s-proven-productivity-fe7cbd99c061 https://medium.com/smalltalk-talk/smalltalk-s-proven-product... That is not data, it is something someone cooked up, not even based on a real project.

If you had bothered to read the paper, you would've seen this: "At least 50,000 software projects have been measured using IFPUG function point metrics, including more than 5,000 projects that are publically available from the International Software Benchmark Standards Group (ISBSG)." What Namcook Analytics did was analyze actual software projects and then extrapolate the findings using their own methodology. If this constitutes "fake cooked statistics," then that's your own personal interpretation, one that is not shared by everyone, nor the majority of readers.
