The figures covered here come from four kinds of source: a 2017 survey of agencies, launch times shown on the method's own site, before-and-after results from two agency case studies, and usability measurements from 1993 that predate the method. None of them is a controlled comparison of growth-driven design with a traditional redesign. Each one establishes something narrower, and the difference matters when a number is used to forecast your own project.
