When we dismiss years of careful research because it lacks a national headcount, we're not being rigorous, we're being reductive.
The question we should be asking isn't just 'How many?' but 'What counts as knowing’?

The paradox is demanding precise answers to questions we haven't sought to measure. We want to know 'how many' before we ask 'who they are', 'what they need', or 'how we can support them'; letting the absence of one type of data eclipse the presence of another, often more relevant form of knowledge
