   Corrected statistics attached to three named case studies and a co-author attribution that does not match the real published series.

   What the page claimed

   Article included headcount and feature-parity statistics for Shopify's React Native migration that could not be verified, attributed Airbnb's 'React Native at Airbnb' blog series to a co-author named Leland Richardson (the actual author is Gabriel Peal) along with frame-drop and crash-rate percentages that could not be verified, and included country, language, engineer-count, startup-benchmark, and star-rating figures for BMW's Flutter deployment that could not be verified.

   What was corrected

   Rewrote all three case studies to preserve the real, verifiable facts (Mustafa Ali's actual role at Shopify, Shopify's actual published code-sharing and crash-free-session statistics, Gabriel Peal as the actual author of Airbnb's blog series, Airbnb's real approximately 220-screen figure, and BMW's genuinely large-scale Flutter deployment) while removing every statistic that could not be verified against a primary source.

   Why: Verified against Shopify's actual published engineering blog posts (Mustafa Ali, 'Five years of React Native at Shopify'), Airbnb's actual 'React Native at Airbnb' blog series by Gabriel Peal, and available reporting on BMW's Flutter deployment and team size; no corroborating source found for any of the specific percentages, headcounts, or the Leland Richardson co-authorship claim.
