Summary

Corrects 5 factual inaccuracies found during deep accuracy review of the "Why Not a Plugin?" post.

  • DeepSeek timeline: "thirteen months" → "twelve months" (event was Jan 27, 2025)
  • DeepSeek cost: Clarify "$5.6 million in compute" (total investment was $1.3-1.6B per SemiAnalysis/Bernstein)
  • Token reduction: 98% → 90% (matches documented progressive disclosure figures)
  • Data scientist stat: 76% → 57% (actual CrowdFlower 2016 figure)
  • Data literacy claim: Remove unsourced quote marks, soften unsupported assertion

Test plan

  • Markdown-only changes, no build impact
  • Verify corrections render correctly on live site after merge

htmlproofer was failing because the site builds with baseurl
/engineering-blog but the PR workflow built into _site/ root.
Add configure-pages step and build into _site/engineering-blog/
so internal links resolve correctly.
