They are kinda bad at interpreting some of the data from what I can tell from their answers to some questions. One of their claims was that players mainly cared about their girls, but there isn't much else to do in the game other than battles and rereading story so that creates a massive bias for the player activity (which they don't seem to realize).

This is an important thing a lot of people are missing. As long as you are active and not just showing up to collect once a day, you will get enough money in a reasonable time. I earn enough to get a girl to 3 stars in two and a half days while going for the event girls... It's pretty much just money from my harem that I'm earning now, and it's enough to get me to full upgrades in less than 3 days.
