Apologies if I incorrectly in your view added the word percent after the raw numbers.

In any event, I stand by what I said, and prefer not to engage in further discussion.

72 out of 1200 is 6 percent, not 0.06 percent.  [similarly 33 out of
1200 is 2.75%, not 0.0275 percent] Whether that's a "few" or "very few" or "high" is subjective -- having the raw numbers is less subjective. I personally would not call 72 cases "very few" (and that wouldn't include NAF, etc., or the cases where it's mentioned in a complaint, but not in the decision]

If 6% of UDRPs result in a RDNH result, some might call that "very high" --- it's all a matter of perspective.

Sincerely,
