The math seems off. How is 7.8 million vs 4 million 95% more expensive. Article makes good points but I doubt the numbers as they don’t add up.

Still agree with the conclusion though.

7.8 is higher than 4 by 3.8 3.8 is 95% of 4 The price went up by 3.8 or in other words the price went up by 95%. I'm not sure what math you're not mathing.

Absolutely right. I had a "math moment" myself. I was thinking margin instead of markup.
