   Goldman Sachs's projection put the creator economy at ~$250B (2023) reaching ~$480B by 2027, not $480-530B by 2026.

   Before

   The creator economy is estimated to be worth between $480 billion and $530 billion in 2026, according to Goldman Sachs projections.

   After

   The creator economy was projected by Goldman Sachs to reach approximately $480 billion in value by 2027.

   Why: Body text already correctly said 'approximately $480 billion in value by 2027' (Goldman Sachs 2024 report). However, the FAQ JSON-LD field still had the stale unverified range ('$480 billion and $530 billion in 2026') in the 'How large is the creator economy in 2026?' answer. Corrected the FAQ answer to match the body text's real Goldman Sachs figure, re-encoded via the same base64/json/base64/json op-sequence, PUT to the live post, and verified via re-fetch that the fix landed cleanly with no other fields affected.
