Readable headline: DART has active maintenance and thousands of recent activity touchpoints across repository traffic, package ecosystems, citation indexes, and downstream projects.
Boundary: these are usage and activity signals, not a de-duplicated count of human users.

Source boundaries
GitHub traffic is collected only when the scheduled workflow has a token that can read repository traffic. Package and citation counts come from public APIs and can drift between refreshes. Downstream rows are public evidence examples, not a complete user registry.
