    Am I missing something? What do the numbers mean in relation to the type? Sub types?

      It’s labeled “Unique data points”. See the number 2 - Usage Data for Gemini, there’s an arrow with label there.

      perhaps it’s the limit imof each data type?!

      gemini harvests only your first four cobtacts, your last two locations, and so on.

      how does one defeat that? have fewer than four friends and don’t go out!
