An economic historian discovers a previously unknown set of detailed tax records from 15th-century Italy that suggest income levels were slightly different from what is currently depicted on the 'history's hockey stick' graph. Based on the nature of the data used to construct this graph, what is the most likely consequence of this discovery?

Critique of the 'History's Hockey Stick' Graph's Data Foundation
An economics student is comparing two versions of the 'history's hockey stick' graph. One is from a textbook published in 2005, and the other is from a 2023 research paper. The student observes that the estimated GDP per capita for Britain in the 1700s is slightly different between the two graphs. What is the most plausible explanation for this difference?
Reliability of Historical Economic Data
An economic researcher is studying the 'history's hockey stick' graph, which visualizes long-term changes in average income. The researcher wants to use the graph to pinpoint the exact decade that Italy's economy began to consistently outperform China's before the year 1500. Why would this be an inappropriate use of the graph, considering how its data was constructed?
