Another benefit of weekly shareholder count would be to widen the aptitude parameters for understanding percentages. Not negative percentages, but those that drop by more than 100%.

So let's say the 1st weekly report on the number of shareholders at that point is 1000. On the 2nd week, it jumps to 2000. On the 3rd week it loses 1000. That loss is 50% of the previous weeks count, BUT, it's also 100% loss of the original 1st week count. Isn't that odd...it's both a 50% loss AND a 100% loss, depending on what you choose to compare it to, or the "basis". They are both fully legitimate percentages. It's just like geometry, ie, it's all in the angles or the point of view. It's just another example of now everything is relative. So, on week 4, the count jumps up to 5000 (major pump campaign, lol). But on week 5 dro ps back by 4000 down to 1000 again. That's an 80% drop from the previous week, BUT IT'S A 400% DROP FROM WHAT IT WAS THE 1ST WEEK!

I hope I didn't make any minor mistakes in that example (after all, I'm only a h.s. dropout) but the basic concept is there and sound.

There are some who for some reason, cannot wrap their head around this basic math exercise & there are those who simply refuse to, even tho they know better & instead, use it as an example of something, for years on end, and constantly.. It doesn't take too much brains to discern why they would do that. What that means, effectively, is that every time they do it, instead of actually demonstrating the incorrectness of the the original fact posted, they are just showing what level they operate from. Very similar, in fact almost a carbon copy of the level vplm & emu operates from.
