My point was that it's without any evidence, you cannot provide the numbers to come to the conclusion that it will come "close to first". You are right I should have written close to first but the point still stands. Here is an example where even combining does not shift anything close to first.

Phone A 50,000
Phone B 25,000
Phone C 10,000
Phone D 5,000
Phone E1 2,500
Phone F1 2,000
Phone G 1,980
Phone E2 1,900
Phone F2 1,500


now combine E1 and E2 and F1 and F2 and see how much that changes the table. Not much at all. You can completely ignore F2 and E2 entirely and the standings will be the same.The point was that the only thing you can deduce from that list without numbers is that combining F1 with F2 and E1 with E2 will mean E1 is still higher. There is no evidence that F1 and F2 would be close to first in a list without numbers. Yet you are ready to believe it is based on nothing but faith.
