I'd disagree; the 2% only come from an absurd overreading:
So in the context of winning a contest with clear demand expectations and going only on cheap talk, without any measure of persistency over time, you only get 2% by counting anyone who claimed to be affected however 'slightly'? I think the more honest appraisal of that little experiment would be '0%'.
I think debating the merits of this particular percentage is not relevant enough to my topic to discuss further here. If you think that I am in error (or, worse, actively trying to manipulate the data to make my case look good), we could continue this conversation via PM or on a more relevant thread.
