    I am wondering why it adds up to exactly 100%. There has to be some creative data handling happened with these numbers.

      Maybe the article/stats were generated using another LLM?

      People like you are why Mt. Everest had two feet added to its actual height so as to not seem too perfect.

        No I’m not. Why would I use feet to measure a mountain’s height?

          Peak XV (measured in feet) was calculated to be exactly 29,000 ft (8,839.2 m) high, but was publicly declared to be 29,002 ft (8,839.8 m) in order to avoid the impression that an exact height of 29,000 feet (8,839.2 m) was nothing more than a rounded estimate.
