This is an interesting question. I’m sure someone will say yes and use data. My thoughts are I don’t know and we can’t truly know.
If we’re more aware of the shittiness, then how can we be sure it wasn’t just as shitty before or less shitty than now? Data relies on documentation and documentation has been, and continues to be, reported sporadically or things are unsolved and thus omitted.
Tl;dr: who knows?
