Breakthrough electrolyser development: 200 times less iridium needed

You've dodged the question mark. What does 50% faster mean? What does 67% faster mean? What does 75% faster mean?

I'm using the exact same terminology, so splitting hairs on phrasing isn't going to work for me.

Something crawls along at 1 m/s.

After some clever engineering, it now runs 50% faster. Its speed is now 100% (the original rate) + 50% (improvement) = 150% of 1 m/s = 1.5 * 1 m/s = 1.5 m/s

50% faster means original speed plus 50%, or 1.5x

As sibling comments said, 50% faster means adding 50% of the nominal speed, so it's 1.5x the original magnitude.
