> You should also factor in ...

Thank you for the suggestion.

I should point out that is not my work, and dates from 2023. If you follow the link to the work quoted you might be able to contact the authors and pass them your thoughts.

You are citing a source to tell a story about subsidies.

Lack of worker safety standards can be considered to be a government subsidy when doing a comparison.

Therefore, it's reasonable to point out that it should be factored in.

    Absolutely. Even better, suggest that the authors factor that in to their presentation.

    Now, I'm not going to tell you what _you_ should do, nor would I even tell you what I think you should do.

    I'll leave that to @thesmtsolver2 and others who enjoy that type of thing.
