    They lost dominance because they aren’t the majority anymore, just the plurality. It’s not a hard concept.

      Their point was clearly that they are still the majority out of all other companies in comparison, just not the most compared to literally the aggregate of all other manufacturers.

        That is the definition of plurality.

          Right but I’m not sure why you said, “It’s not a hard concept” when the person was responding to the headline that says they lost market dominance, when that seems a bit misleading.

      I think the statistical nature of the comment you’re replying to kinda flew right past you.
