Extract

Surveys identify organizational maturity tiers, which is a form of stratification, contradicting the claim

Relevance to Hypotheses

Hypothesis Relationship Strength
H1 Contradicts No survey identified capability stratification
H2 Supports Surveys exist but frame stratification as organizational maturity, not individual capability
H3 Partial Surveys explicitly identify capability-based stratification

Context

The claim is partially correct but requires significant caveats. The sample sizes are approximately correct (McKinsey ~1,993 not 1,933; BCG 10,600 confirmed; Deloitte 3,235 confirmed). However, the assertion that no survey identified capability-based stratification is an overstatement. McKinsey identifies 'AI high performers' (6% of respondents). BCG finds a three-tier capability model. These surveys do identify capability differences but frame them as organizational maturity, not individual skill stratification.
