Given you were so keen to call out the ineffectiveness of anecdotes, it's rather ironic for you to be giving out estimates with no real data behind them as somehow superior.

Not to mention, where was the anecdote in your article? There's no anecdote there in a 1.3B estimate, for all I know it's just some random reporter's guess (backed up by who knows what), whereas an anecdote is at least a hard fact, just one with small sample size. If I don't know how the estimate is made then I probably actually prefer the anecdote.
