That's the beginning of Googlification of feature evolution, via population statistics rather than quality.

If it increases a KPI by 5% for 95% of users but torpedos the experience for 5%? Ship it.

on one hand 95% of users get an improved experience. While a competitor gets the chance to build a business for the remaining 5%.
