Link to numbers, please..?
I am sorry, I'm going to mind statistics. You seem to like numbers when they support (or can be made to support) your predefined conclusion, but when it turns out your statistics are wrong or misleading you go "never mind".
Yes, because you can't run a cost-benefit analysis without looking at costs.
That is how people use the expression "country as a whole".
Is a ton of air as a whole denser than a gram of gold as a whole? IOW intensive quantities are intensive.
Is “rich” an intensive quantity, like “dense”, or an extensive one, like “heavy”? Meh. I'd say it depends on the context, and in the context of Izeinwinter's comment I'd say it is clear which they meant.
