    How else can it be interpreted?

    Exponential increase that has been slow for decades, but is just now starting to ramp up?

      Sure, but the question was how they got to the number. If it was a random big number, then fine, that answers my question, but I was just wondering if there was a reason behind it. Usually when people make that joke they just purposefully misinterpret the trend which is why I went for the 1% or 33%
