Where the evidence stops
Most findings are correlational. Overrepresented traits are not the same as proven causal lifts.
Some subgroups, especially FAQ Schema + FAQ Content, are relatively small and should be read carefully.
The study looks at cited pages rather than all uncited pages in the open web, so it is best used as a benchmark profile.
What to do with this
Operators should test removing FAQ schema and formatting from answer pages. This formatting delta provides a clear optimization lever for increasing AI citations.
