Why is there a “Top Provider Content Share” metric if its gonna score the same as the “Top Provider User Share” every time ?

As said in the footer, this is a work in progress, I’m posting it to get input and still refining sources

Why is the Top Provider Content Share not higher than the user share ? For instance, emails usually have at least one sender and one recipient, making it twice as likely that at least one of them is using gmail. If an email has 10 recipients across 10 different providers, each provider has a copy of the data

I’d love to get better data on this, I’ve looked but not yet found better data than what I included in the source

Why is ease of hosting a mail server rated so well ? How is “leveraging email hosting services” decentralized in any way ?

Here I’m a bit in two minds, sure it’s difficult to SELF host email, but in practice it isn’t because there are hundreds (Thousands?) of hosting options to choose from where you can choose your own domain etc. for the low price of basically-free

Why are we using a random repo created a few hours ago by a random github user as a reference ?

It’s my repo, it’s to keep track of the versions and so that others can copy, edit and share it if they like.
