What was corrected

What the page claimed
Article attributed specific but unsupported or wrong-category figures to Virginia Mason's results, and attached unverified precise statistics to Dekker, Bagian, and the Google DORA report.
What was corrected
Virginia Mason's figures corrected to their real categories and Leapfrog record; Dekker, Bagian, and DORA citations corrected to describe their real, qualitative or differently-scoped findings without the unverified precision.

Why this is better

Verified each named study and statistic against the real published literature; found real researchers, institutions, and reports with unverified or misattributed specific numbers layered on top, the same pattern confirmed across other WNF articles this session.
