True, but I am not seeing the claimed consumer surplus. Data-driven decision-making is good up to a point, but it too easily becomes an excuse for chasing the lowest common denominator, because it mistakes popularity for quality. Budweiser is (I think) the most popular beer int e US, but anyone who likes beer knows it's not particularly good, it's just the least bad across multiple criteria.
