Statement: The 5.4 figure is incorrect or outdated — the actual mean Scorecard score is materially different due to methodology changes, population definition changes, or updated measurements.

Supporting Evidence Would Show

  • Evidence that OpenSSF Scorecard methodology has changed significantly (new checks, reweighting) since the 5.4 figure was measured.
  • More recent aggregate analyses showing substantially different means.
  • Evidence that the 'top one million' population is defined differently than assumed.

Eliminating Evidence Would Show

  • Recent (2024-2025) data confirming the mean remains near 5.4.
  • OpenSSF official statements corroborating the 5.4 figure.
