However to construct the exponential trend (and project it into the future, because what else are trends good for?) you have to rely on historical data.
You can't compare a linear progression to an exponential one.
You suggested bc of trend A past trends no longer predict the future. Thus trend F will happen. I countered with, if past trends no longer predict the future A doesn’t hold either.
You say were on an exponential trend and that this trend will continue into the future, A. I’ve said demand increases to match supply and this trend will continue into the future, E.
