If all you want to do is point at the headline number and go no farther, that’s fine. But it seems fairly pointless unless the goal is just to kvetch about something that’s generally unfortunate. In this thread nobody is denying the headline number, they’re just pointing out that a lot of these effects may cease to exist in the future even if we do nothing else. Hence maybe it’s not something to panic about.
