What a stat section actually is, measured on 50 of them
Not what a stat section should be. What the ones we have measured contain, how much they vary, and how common each element is — with the denominator on every number.
This page states what the corpus holds. It does not recommend anything, it does not call any value good, and it never adds the axes together — a total would rebuild the composite score this product is retiring.
