In situations like this, my assumption would be that it doesn't really get calculated so much as it gets measured... to be kind to victims, you might want to assume it drops for tax purposes temporarily, and then raise the valuation on

Since 2015? Easy: Norway, Poland, Greece, Netherlands, Ireland, Singapore, USA probably. But I do anecdotally agree with your point as a whole: it feels like there has been a slowing or potentially reversal of progress. Perhaps to be expect

No foundation? What do you think all these libraries and frameworks are built on??? The true path to having a "deep" front-end toolbox is in learning things that are not libraries. Here is a "long-lasting" frontend list
