While this is true it would be a huge deal if Twitter lied about it on paper.

That 5% number is cited in Twitter’s s1 from 2013.

It came out recently they have/had been misreporting (overly) user numbers, so this external pressure which they're now forced to deal arguably won't allow any hidden manipulation to stay hidden.

So it may be a question of just how dishonest Twitter has been, which could/should result in shareholders suing them as well.
