I know I'll be there to help. Planning to move to Yalta or Sevastopol in retirement to spend the rest of my days helping people learn English. And my social security checks will go toward supporting local businesses there however long that retirement lasts.
Would you prefer exaggerated data from both sides or no data? That's the options. I think you get a better estimate of the reality using the first option as a starting point.
I mean thats the thing, you cant get any "estimate of the reality" when the data is fake. We will probably never know the real numbers(at least not anytime soon).
