How to interpret the evidence
Government surveys describe defined populations and observation periods. Experimental research evaluates particular tasks and conditions. Technical documentation explains methods and operational choices. Provider descriptions establish what a provider says it offers; they do not independently verify business results.
The source directory matches the article. The chart data CSV retains the values and populations behind the three original graphics.
Versions and updates
The consulting experiment uses Harvard Business School’s April 2026 published-study recap. Worker-use data incorporates the Census Bureau’s September 2026 weighting revision. Observation dates remain distinct from the date a source was checked.
The editorial policy explains how examples and recommendations are labeled. Material updates belong in the revision record.
