I think what the grand parent was hinting with Google Analytics is data collected outside of what's stored directly in the Google account. If you visit a site that has Google Analytics on or if you fill a Recaptcha, do they match this

Programmers whose code can be more easily read and maintained later would be at least one metric. Regarding the use of the apostrophe, I don't have any proof but I think it's more often native speakers rather than non-native speak

This scenario is so common and the list of disputed territories is so long that it should be a standard. It could be a bit like the timezones, the locale, or the decimal point separator, or other things like that. It should be an option at
