I've decided this article is so unclear in its terms that it is unusable - for example:

"According to Bookstat, which looks at the book publishing market as a whole, there were 2.6 million books sold online in 2020 and only 268 of them sold more than 100,000 copies—that’s only 0.0001 percent of books. By far, the more likely thing is to sell between 0 and 1,000 copies—and there were 2.6 million of those last year (96 percent)."

what is up with that 2.6 million, it isn't explainable by just being 'the number of titles!'
