It’s not a peer reviewed double blind study but it absolutely is evidence that the people with 95% share think that their product interferes with basic human needs and becomes habit forming after half an hour, just as it was evidence that R. J. Reynolds executives knew roughly how few cigarettes a teenager needed to smoke to become a lifelong customer even if they didn’t know the exact neuroscience of how that worked or run a psychology study trying to exactly quantify effectiveness.

No, it is evidence but it’s at different levels as explained. Trying to be pedantic is just obscuring whatever point you are trying to make.
