Why this is better
Body content and the data table were already correctly fixed to ~4.8 million (6 instances) and ~3% BLS growth, but the FAQ JSON-LD block's 'How many cybersecurity jobs are unfilled globally?' answer still cited the stale 3.5 million figure, and the post excerpt independently repeated the same stale '3.5M' figure. Both fixed to 4.8 million/4.8M to match the corrected body and re-verified live after PUT.
