Summary of the pipeline shares from Mohanadasan's data and the instability of sources on repetition.
The shares can no longer be measured directly after the field was removed; the signature method yields a markedly higher scrape share for us, because news and price questions are over-represented in the prompt set. The instability we confirm.
