I think 2012 was a rounding error... 2010 seems to be the real deal.

I’d love to look at that question in detail.

With real statistics.

Then figure out what would constitute a “significant” increase”.

Time, time, time.

One good thing - it is fairly deep. Might lessen the impact.

Prayers for all in the area.
