Like the GP said, the whole topic of this article is getting an accurate figure, and how the 2%/9th largest figure is incorrect.

Incorrect, yes, but to be fair .67% and 2% occupy the same "wow, that's a large proportion of the economy" order-or-magnitude band of surprise (for me). Obviously not as charismatic/sensational, but still significant and surprising (to me).
