Why this is better

Body content and bibliography already correctly described the Singh et al. 2023 BMJ study as an overview of 97 systematic reviews covering 1,039 trials and 128,119 participants, and already correctly gave the SMILE trial relapse rates as ~8% (exercise) vs ~38% (sertraline). But the FAQ JSON-LD field still cited the stale unverified figure of '218 trials' with no mention of the true 97-review/1,039-trial structure. Corrected the FAQ to match the article's own verified figures.
