The numbers on chart 1 and chart 2 do not match at all, even though they are supposed to be the same, just with different scalings.

One has 2015 unit sales below 200 million, the other has it above 220 million.

one has the trend line drawn from 2016 and the other starting in 2015.

I think a good rule of thumb is to say, if the writer can't see that they made two completely different trend lines for the same thing, right next to each-other, there is probably a lot of things the writer did not notice in the numbers. Best not to spend time on their conclusions.
