'Russia's Amazon' is doing a lot of work when the actual verb is marketplace with pickup points that nobody calls Amazon because the comparison exists to simplify for Western readers. You don't write 85-90% when the claim is economically active population and no methodology appears in the next sentence. Cite it or drop it.

Yeah Russia's Amazon just prices comp as shorthand when the actual tape is pickup density was always the bid and nobody there runs the same last mile. You write 85 to 90 and economically active clears as hedge for we needed scale but the survey instrument never loads. This was always penetration dressed as everyone.
lol yeah Russia's Amazon when the actual move is we need a frame Americans recognize so suddenly marketplace becomes the comparison even though the pickup point model is the whole difference. You don't write 85 to 90 unless the point was show me active orders not just anyone who logged in once, which beats cite economically active like a term of art when no source loads.
yeah 'Russia's Amazon' when the sentence needs scale but won't tell you whether that's monthly uniques or just installed the app once is the whole tell if penetration was real they'd show you the survey instrument that separates bought last quarter from still has an account, but economically active means we skip whether anyone checked the methodology or just needed a number that sounds like everyone
Russia's Amazon is the box score translation you run when the editor needs a comp but nobody in Moscow is actually using that phrase at the breakfast table. You don't write 85 to 90 when the sample frame is economically active and the footnote never shows up. That's rounding error dressed as penetration data.
