Clipping from The Crayon, Vol. 1, No. 11 (Mar. 14, 1855), p. 170: "...however ingenious the processes or surprising the results of photography, it must be remembered that this art only aspires to copy, it cannot invent. The camera, it is true, is a most accurate copyist, but it is no substitute for original thought or invention. Nor can it supply that refined feeling and sentiment which animate the productions of a man of genius, and so long as invention and feeling constitute essential qualities in a work of Art, Photography can never assume a higher rank than engraving."

Screenshot showing that the ticket prices for 2025 are assumed to be the same as 2024. We will not know the actual ticket numbers until 2026, but because the number of tickets sold is a function of the price of those tickets, the real ticket price (which can only go up) will reduce the final calculation of the number of tickets sold.
Note: Figures for 2025 are at an annualized rate (both in the graph above and the table below)
