The wrong picture ?

Heavensward and Stormblood grew just fine. Shadowbringers grew as much as HW and SB percentage-wise. EW didn't grow at all outside of the WoW influx which all left already. Did this new direction actually do anything ? If the game keeps growing 30-50% in population whether you have hard or easy jobs, that doesn't sound like it has anything to do with whether the jobs are hard or easy does it ?
