Nigerian rows were sorted by daily_streams descending and the largest one, two, three and four were removed in turn. In each scenario ng_streams is the remaining Nigerian total, ng_seats the remaining Nigerian row count, and ng_streams_per_seat the quotient. Egypt is held unchanged at all 19 of its rows throughout, so eg_streams_per_seat is constant; ng_eg_per_seat_ratio divides the Nigerian per-seat figure by it. Removing a row removes both its streams and its seat, which is the only arithmetic that keeps the per-seat comparison honest. This is a single day, so it tests how far the per-seat gap depends on individual artists, not whether the gap persists over time. removed_streams is the combined daily_streams of the artists removed in that scenario, and the artists are named in the scenario label because this panel is built from published chart data, not from statements.","unit":"streams","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
