Why this is better

Verified already correctly fixed in body content (3.7%, matching the Hsieh & Moretti 2019 AEJ:Macro bibliography citation). FAQ mentions the same research only in vague terms ('reduced American GDP by billions of dollars annually') without repeating the stale 2% figure. Excerpt does not mention this figure. No further action needed.
